All there needs to be is soft lock and for the amount of soft lock to be gauged based on whatever design reasons. No one is looking for headshots, etc or its a very small crowd. Just needs to be so people can move in and out to dodge attacks or block vision on projectiles or use skills to avoid being hit.

AOE ground template abilities are not soft locked, and they shouldn't be. There is no reason you can't expand it more like they have with the Ranger. Skills shots, also don't equal headshot type game play.

Did not say skill shots are exclusive to headshot, that was used as an example and extends to any kind of precision shots body, arm, leg, head, etc.

Very much agree. Example of a game a lot of players played that can probably relate would be the Mage and Cone of Cold. A simple ability for a "skill shot" but requires timing, and positioning. I'm just interested in seeing more mechanics to abilities like they have done with Scatter Shot, and the additional timing of the ability to make it multi faceted.
