Ranged attacks already can be a one hit kill and tools are too situational, but you'll use melee attacks all the time and the extra damage can definitely help depending on how many AP you put into this skill.
Again though, in most situations this can be remedied by just waiting for the enemies to move around a bit. Dodging or heavy melee attacks are far better ways for dealing with shield users, and with better options it makes this skill largely superfluous.

A 1% boost is almost nothing, and considering how infrequently you are to use these in comparison to your other stuff, it is best to power up your melee attacks if you really want a boost somewhere.
Again, avoid this skill entirely unless you are using warrior bows. Description: Hold [input] to control a predator arrow in the air.Cost: 2 APComments: At the beginning of the game, try out all the types of bows and see which ones you like best.
