Hey mate thanks for that detailed reply!
Regarding Circling, yeah I’m more pve based and core build is Falconer so I’m kinda biased, leaning towards having longer Circling effects in exchange of better Pheasant damage in terms of skilk allocation. Doing Velco just fine, and because I also believe Falco’s strength is mob clearing and such… So being top dps doesn’t worry me too much really.
About Homing vs Spread Shot, yeah I feel the same… Although they did sorta fix Spread Shot, having high AAR makes my Homing Arrow better now. On top of that, with boss all them arrows will hit, versus Spread Shot which will most likely “miss” anyway too…
