Landing a hit using either of these two abilities is a lucky action in itself but players, once hit, just roll away. These two abilities, to be useful in PvP, really need a stun or stagger component with them. Like I mentioned trying to land a hit with them is VERY hard in PvP and why bother when the player just rolls away? They seem kind of useless in PvP.

Whenever I tried this weapon the ptr, people would just spam light dodge after getting hit with claw or net and roll away and you walk like a snail after you fire an auto for what feels like eternity. I think it could use a little love in some spots.

Agree, these two abilities are about worthless in PvP. So, 
Also, blast shot is also very limited in PvP…tho not as bad as Net Shot & Grapple. With most players running full strength and grit this shot not working against them. Also, anyone else using grit it doesn’t work against them.
No wonder everyone is just using GA/WH and IG/VG…cause their abilities aren’t so limited and actually work in both PvE and PvP.
Agree… if you are hit with either you should receive a shock immobilizing you for at least .5 sec… the fact a bow user is rooted for .33 sec for shorting their bow and a player being hit by a BB has no I’ll effects is weird…

and the person firing BB is also slowed.
I can imagine its hard to hit with these abilities if you are got used to the grav with a hitbox of a fort and 360 stuns and such. But on other classes landing skillshot abilities and shots are the same like that and they aren’t complaining about it.
The BB is good, it finally reqires the STR players to have some skill other than lmb spamming.

Net shot is a guaranteed escape from Gravwell. I really like it. Plus if you have exhausted Net Shot perk it becomes quiet strong for slowing runners (they generate less stamina to dodge roll less)
Claw shot is still a hit or miss, utility-wise. Very weak ability until people try to flee or you’re chasing someone
I’ll be uploading a PvP video of SnS BB soon. *TM
The escape is pretty hit or miss for me. Sometimes it does nothing.
Press back or no direction at all and it will work every time so long as you are not rooted. Grapple is pretty over powered as it stands. It’s a ranged root that is fast cast and has a low cooldown.
Nabel…for your information, Grapple has NO root or stagger but needs one!
Grapple should be a pull ability.
Claw shot roots. At least it’s listed in the tool tip.
Please use the skill before attempting to provide information about it.
Isn’t it a good thing that it’s ‘useless’ in your opinion? Else there’d be a bunch of morons on here crying it’s all left clicking and needs to be nerfed.
grapple shot is the best ability for using with azoth blast. Puts you right in their face to do max damage
Thats probably true for pve but in pvp all you have to do is roll when u get grappeled and you will never get a skill/shot off after.
It does root them but only while you are zipping over, as soon as you get there the enemy is free to do whatever they want. Its super predictable and easy to avoid. It needs a root or something after you get there.
