Just to catch up I haven't played my WH in a very long time and noticed that the snap shot ability now has a 3sec cooldown, I asked about this on advice and a few people told me it was nerfed/buffed with a cooldown but does a slight bit more damage is this true? (The damage I mean)

You have a CD on it now, but it will snare your target if it hits the sides, not just the read. So strafing away from you wont ignore your snare.

Sometimes it works, sometimes not. It happens to be very random.

It's not random. It's either Lag, or your target is shifting their front angle in time for the shot. My WE has no issue with TD partial snare on sides. Melee DPS has it tough with lag as it is, with enemies warping, or seemingly being unhittable due to actual location≠shown location. Remember, TD/SS has a cast animation and flight time, so the enemy can turn towards you...

I don't have a WH anymore, and my WE doesn't get super amounts of time, but the TD change is awesome imo. I get far more snares than I used too. Simply using strafe used to entirely negate the snare...
