“Requires a ranged weapon” 
(I’d never use it, but why is this there?)
Then…
Serpent Sting : Visuals literally makes you draw a crossbow
P.S. Why not make a barrage version using a polearm ?
“barrage version using a polearm” = Fury of the Eagle
But yes, I agree it’s stupid that barrage is still in the tree when we can’t use it.
Should either give us another talent in it’s place, or just remove it. No reason to leave it there since it’s wasted space.

It’s probably the reason why it’s a choice node alongside Explosive Shot, which we CAN use (and is frankly better than Barrage in every way lol). Then again I’d love to see Barrage work with Survival just because it’d be funny watching my fella going wild with his dinky lil crossbow

Very true, since explosive shot, tranq. shot isn’t shot by my polearm 
.
I don’t want to use barrage, was just surprised
Honestly though, with explosive shot in the tree, it’s not even a question.
They would need to do some re design to make barrage actually competitive.
It’s weak, does physical damage, consumes more focus, and more gcds. in fact not only does it have a 20 sec cd as opposed to 30, but it’s also a channel, so it’s just garbage.
Explosive shot instead does a lot of damage, is casted less times, is strong even in st, and requires less focus.
Also, barrage honestly reminds me of noobies, because it’s also prone to ninja pulling, it’s just a objectively inferior ability to explosive, even from a design prospective.

Same reason MM hunters can change their kill commands…and get serpent sting even without speccing serpent sting (via trickery). The talents are kind of a mess.
