NGD has already stated that they are not nerfing Confuse. They feel the other nerfs were already enough.

Regarding Cold blood: It should be swapped with Strategic position and increased to 15 seconds. Marksman is the offensive class and Hunters are the defensive class. This long history of Hunters being DPS and Marksmen being tanks has to end.

Some other improvements to Marksman offense:
- Increase Death sentence to +25% damage and make it range 35.
- Reduce Parabolic shot to 15% range bonus
- Increase Specialist to 15% like other damage passives, and move it to Aiming replacing the hit chance passive there
- Change Foresight to a fixed range increase: +6 meters on level 1 and up to +10 meters on level 5

With the new shortbow range these changes would help Marksmen more adept at short bows than longs, which I feel is a good change simply because short bows has always been the more offensive (DPS) of the two bow diciplines. The rangers (Hunters) should be more adept at long bows due to their lack of range projection abilities. Remember: Marksmen should not be killing machines from a distance, but they should be killing machines from mid-range, because it is their territory.

The Hunter's ability to fulfill this role instead has lasted too long and it is time for some change.

Kind regards.
