Take Aim - MISS???

One of my biggest gripes about my Archer is that fact that Take Aim can MISS. Honestly now... really? You spend 3 seconds TAKING AIM at your target (a giant tree standing 20 feet away), and I see a big MISS pop up on my screen. For some reason, that doesn't make much sense. Using the take Aim skill should have either a 100% hit rate, or a drastically reduced chance to miss by increasing accuracy by 100% or something. Because isn't the whole point of the skill to take the extra time to make sure your aim is good? <end rant>

    Wait, a giant tree? Well that's the answer. You are attacking a giant piece of wood with a smaller piece of wood. Of course there is no effect.

    Navarre was your everyday veno, until she learned her true form. Now she's fox walloping and purging over and over again.. all for a deep stinging, head hunting, wind pushing Assassin. Will there be inner harmony and myriad rainbows? But of course! Yuri&Lemon Find it on Fanfiction XD "Discovering Sanctuary" Chapter 2 is up ^_^

    so wait... u are telling me my 3 arrows just hit 15+ mobs at the same time? SWEET! thats some insane splash dmg from arrow impacting the ground...should be barrage of meteors instead of arrows>.>
    My body is made of swords.
    Iron is my blood, and glass is my heart.
    I have overcome countless battlefields undefeated,
    Without once retreating,
    Nor once being understood.
    Always alone, intoxicated with victory on the hill of swords.
    Therefore, there is no meaning to that life.
    Perhaps this body is nothing but a sword itself.

    Of course it does not make sense. First of all, having giant tree WALKING around does not make sense. Humans riding on SWORDS does not make sense. It's TEH game.
    Also, waiting isn't to increase your accuracy. It's to increase your damage.

    Keep the faith man. Buy perfect shards for acc and your take aim will never miss. b:shutup

    And in fact - I agree with you - 3 seconds charging and taking aim and.... miss? Very stupid but... this is the game - as lvls go higher u will hardly ever use take aim/deadly in PVE. So...don't worry.
    My people, some of them have run away to the hills
    and have no shelter. No food, no one knows where they are,
    hear me my chiefs, I am tired. My heart is sick and sad,
    I will fight no more....
