But it is a pretty drastic change that could have unintended consequences of course. | ||

Ranger's Ambush refills Withering Fire and Windrunner allows you to cast a second Haunting Wave. That's 15 Withering Fire arrows available, as well as having a second Haunting Wave available. Could be used both defensively and offensively. You could even be a little more risky, going in with Haunting Wave #1 for a total of 10 arrows and then going back out with the second wave, dumping five arrows into anything nearby. I wonder if Splinter Shot (Withering Fire hitting a second target for about 75% dmg) would be good with that. | ||

You just get more sustained damage and mobility, which she doesn't need. It's a fun thing to try for sure, but it's not better than getting Cold Embrace at level 16. And Envenom might still be the preferred talent at 4 even after the nerf. Cold Embrace could work as well, I've only picked up Sylvanas a few days ago so I'm still trying things. Envenom after the nerf takes 10 seconds to do its damage, that is hardly burst either.  Envenom also has a 60 second cooldown, compared to only 11 for Haunting Wave. | ||

the 5 extra arrows might help you escape though with evasive fire. But in most cases using your escape offensively will result in death. | ||

Altough usually i pick divine shield 90% of the time to try and save stupid team mates that overextend  Of course you should variate the build in certain situations, but in general that's a pretty good one, and its the standard for sure. One thing you need to take into account is that Uther is the best burst healer in the game, but his cooldowns are fairly long and his sustained heal is lacking. Therefore, knowing when to time abilities and talents like Protective Shield, Divine Shield, and which skill to use with benediction (maybe you want double stun, or double heal) is crucial to playing good with Uther. He is kinda hard to play in my opinion because of all his active abilities. | ||

What do you mean exactly? The second wave can be used 2 seconds after teleporting from the first one, not after casting it. You only have to cast the second one within 2 seconds, how long it takes before you teleport to the second one is up to you. | ||
