I'd happily give up M30 and Ignite for Aim and a Blazing Arrow clone. And while I'm making wishes, they can make Flamethrower a shorter, heavier DoT like Breath of Fire.

The way I see it, everything in the game falls into roughly two categories at 50. One category contains minions, lieutenants, and most bosses. The other contains things that don't wither and die with a negligent pull of the trigger.

The first category is handled quite well by heat loss, sleet, flamethrower, full auto, and several dozen other powers that my teammates bring to the table.

The second category is what I have Ignite for. AVs, EBs, PVP zone turrets, and anything else I can immobilize will go down very quickly with an ignite patch. In my opinion, it's the only substantial advantage that AR has over Archery.
