New idea for sniper training rune

[Tuskinator-skull-rock]

Current rune sucks, almost no fight you can stand and turret damage to get the most out of the 6 seconds it needs, why not change it so the further you are away from your target the more damage you do? fits with the rune name

Yes, i have seen this in GW2 , Mesmer . The further away a Mesmer is , the more dame they can do . I love Mesmer , my favorite class in GW2 .

I wish Blizzard had a class that is similar to Mesmer . That would drive melee classes insane .

I guess the rune will be useful to identify the player that’s going to “stand in the fire” in raids. Other than that, they really ought to rethink this one.

Interesting Idea. I was just complaining about sniper training in another post. The current version is weird. Hunter is all about moving and kiting. Stand still for 6 seconds is so anti hunter.

Your idea is definitely way better than what it is now.

my idea for this specific rune.

Focus
‘‘Old sniper training rune repurposed.’’
Every second standing still increase your mana regeneration by ‘‘x’’ gaining the maximum amount of mana regen at 6 second. Stacks are lost when moving.

I made a whole post a while ago with some rune ideas if you wanna go take a look

Future Hunter Runes

The purpose of this post is just for fun and discussion on potential future runes for the hunter class in SOD. PHASE 1 RUNES: GLOVES/CHEST/LEGS PHASE 2 RUNES: BOOTS/HEAD/BELT PHASE 3 RUNES: WRIST/SHOULDER/BACK PHASE 4 RUNES: NECK/RING1/RING2 EDIT: Made some changes to many runes based on feedback, made hunter tank a real thing with some runes to make it better. Also ditched the whole spellpower hunter. Also note that some of these might look op on paper but blizz will surely …

It would be much better if it just reduced the cast time of aimed shot by like 2 seconds and removed the cast time on multishot. The current runes for other classes boosted their mobility so much that a 3 second cast is nearly an eternity to get off.

i also have a rune for this one:

Sharpshooter
Arcane shot reduce the cast time of Aimed shot by 0.5 second and increase its damage by 5%, max 6 stacks.

At max stacks Aimed shot become instant cast. Sinergyze well with some other rune idea written down in the post boosting arcane shot.

[Khvnt-bloodsail-buccaneers]

Would have to impact chimera shot and explosive as well since no one going MM is ever pressing arcane shot under any circumstances.

welp i have this too for this issue

Lock and Loaded
Your ranged auto attacks have a 5% chance to trigger a free arcane shot (explosive shot if specced into it) without triggering its CD. Arcane shot now scales with attack power.
