ranger feels slugish

my first playthrough is with a ranger and all the casttimes feel really long. this sucks when i'm trying to dodge stuf as i'm squisy but for some reson the escape arrow oesn't throw me far enough to get away from danger, while it also doen't prevent me from taking melee hits. i think the movement abilitys should be buffed. the other ranger specific skill;s also don't have the same awsome factor as the skills i've seen that other classes have even though all my skills are even slower then theirs.

It's not so bad with some attack speed nodes and I took the Dex stacking speed node, but the escape is useless, best advice is try not to need it by staying back.

Escape shot is lame due to slow and can't actually escape. It's basically freeze shot. Rune Vault from Touchlight 2 is the prime example of actually dodge skill. Quick and give enough distance, very responsive to use (although spammy to the point that better than run :v)

They need some movement skill like PoE Dash, that feel more responsive and not too good to be over power if they don't give more distance and reasonable CD for PoE 2 slugfest.
