Usually I can get two shots off before melee. Faster shooting will not matter on the first, since it is that shot that draws aggro (hit or miss). Getting the second shot off depends on distance and speed of the target, so only in marginal cases will that 10% make any difference there.My thought is that it would be nice if you could toggle yourself as participating in volleys or not, and then certain classes could call for a volley where everyone who has volley toggled on fires thier missle weapon. What would be even cooler is if the person who called for the volley got all of the aggro. This would be nice as a paladin ability, I think. You could buy volley in levels, each level giving a slight range bonus to that wave of missles. (to make it easier for the whole group to fire without exact positioning). Say, instant, 1 minute cooldown.
You know that if you were in the same room with everyone in your five person group you'd be doing "ok everyone, 3, 2, 1, fire!" This just lets you do it over the internet.
