Edit: Also, to anyone else who was a Ranger/Sniper back in the day when everyone trained in Aqua, did anyone else hate having Haste in Aqua? I was at Squids/Gobies from level 80 to 108, and I know I right-clicked the hell out of that buff, because it threw off my jump-shoot timing. I'd be able to shoot like twice, jump, shoot again, and then miss the second shot.

It depends on which spot you are doing. At gobies, I always turned it off if I was doing above bottom or top, but on flat spots with little jumping going on like middle or bottom, it was nice. At squids, I turned it off regardless of where I was. Since a lot of shooting is done in the water, off of the platform, it really fucks you up there.

And question: why did all the Rangers use Inferno to lure the gobies? I never understood that. They're strong to fire, and Inferno isn't very strong to begin with. All I ever did was Strafe close to the goby houses and AR immediately. I don't think they got away any more than they would have if I had started with Inferno.

Yes, Inferno/Puppet were an unnecessary precaution that only scrubs used. Everyone that learned how to train there stopped doing it eventually. No one used it to do damage of course, just to make absolutely sure that they wouldn't be hit by any of the gobies, even though you can achieve the same thing just about every time with Rain alone.
