I just reached lvl 32 hunter, and my i upgraded scatter shot to 2/12 but when I fight i dont see any aoe dmg being inflicted, or any sort of aoe animation after i fire. I have marksmanship 12/12 but not puncture shot arrows.

Any hunters notice this too?

If you look closely, you'll see a bright-redish points coming from a monster's center. it's not what you'd expect. i was expecting the arrows to burst into several fragments upon impact and that those fragments would hit adjecent monsters but in fact only one monster gets hit.
From what I have seen, it *does* cause extra damage but doesn't hit more than one monsters.
the skill is disappointing because I was hoping to use it for large mobs of monsters.

Scatter Shot Arrows


A secret of master fletchers is the ability to craft special arrow heads that burst on impact sending out razor-sharp fragments in all directions.

Hmm I'm pretty sure Scatter Shot arrows does infact hit multiple targets. Go round up or just shoot at a pack of 2-3+ monsters which are fairly close together. Shoot at the one thats most in the middle of the pack and the arrows damage all targets within a certain distance around it.

Level 12: 1 Energy Cost, 7-9 Fragments, 45 Piercing Damage ...I think -by the skill description- that this is the dmg scatter does when it hits another target. Not base dmg + scatter, just the scatter, which is why it doesn't seem to do much.

With my hunter its noticeable quite a bit *shrug*.
