Excelsior

has this idea ever been brought up? it would be as simple as pay ed for a deed that adds 10 range property to a weapon. or maybe just 1 per deed up to 10?

Yeah, sawnoffs are out. People are after a bit more range these days.

o yea i forgot, to make these worthy of use on a bow or something maybe they can get up to 14 range.

whirlwind with range of 10?

whirlwind only attacks the enemies one tile around you. It has no regard for the range of the weapon

I think some things are better left unchanged.... this being one for example i myself like toe to toe combat love the spray of blood in my face when i hit you over the head with my hammer haha

Rossi u get into this game to much

Well I think the ranged melee is a bad idea, I mean you throw you war hammer or something at a monster to hit it you have to run back up there unequipped to get it. On the other hand 100ed for +1 range on a bow is something I and I believe many other would be very interested in. Of course with a maximum range like the 14 that was mentioned earlier.

melee: a confused struggle; especially : a hand-to-hand fight among several people

I'm pretty sure that's why Archery was created. If you want ranged melee play Diablo where they have throwing knives.
