It's a great alternative for someone who doesn't want to ALWAYS be a healer, but can sometimes reskill for offence.

Your suggestions about Strategic Position is from a PvP perspective, forgetting this is an RvRvR game. Marksmen are the offensive class that stand at the top of forts to defend it, and they often take many hits from the opposing realm's mages/archers who are trying to capture the fort. Of course they need a range defense spell.

Also, hunters CAN beat marksmen in PvP. Petless hunters can sneak up, hunters with pets can buff with bestial wrath/pet protection buff and use death sentence, sudden strike, etc... (I'm saying this as a L50 hunter)
In my opinion, though, hunters shouldn't be able to take on a fully buffed marksman in 1v1, as a marksman's role is to be offensive while hunters are scouting and stealth units.

As for SotW... I'm sure you just got sick of losing fights to marksmen because of it. Once again, this is an RvRvR game, not PvP.

Can someone close this whine thread, i think its done
