Headshot is a passive AA ability that only Rangers can purchase. It provides a chance that any Archery based attack on a lower-level humanoid mob can hit for 65,000 HP damage. The damage is treated as physical damage and cannot be mitigated or resisted. It works with both regular Archery and any spells that use an "Archery Skill Attack" (like the "Hail/Arc/Barrage of Arrows" directional AE spell line). This information is current up to the House of Thule expansion:

NOTE: Sometime around the Underfoot expansion, the Devs mentioned a possible change to Headshot that would have limited it to only hitting a mob the Ranger had targeted. This would mean any mob hit by an AE spell (such as "Hail of Arrows") that was not specifically targeted by the caster, could not be Headshot. This change has not yet been made.
