I've made a post about incorrect ranges before, but there were so many incorrect descriptions that I inadvertently used the wrong range to measure the other ranges with.

 

The skills that have incorrect ranges listed are all 'Target: Area'.

 

Blazing Arrow

Creeping Vines

Monsoon

Storm

Miasma

Despair

Erupt

Benediction

 

All the above skills listed as 15y, but actual range is 12y. If you compare Erupt to Blizzard, both are listed as 15y but Blizzard range is 3y further than Erupt. If you compare Blazing Arrow and Tornado, Blazing Arrow is listed as 15y and Tornado listed as 12y, but both have the same casting radius.

Found an old post.
 

Many abilities have had their ranges increased slightly due to improved camera distances.


Before this update, the range of all abilities (with the exception of buffs) was 12 yards or less. Following this update, the ranges of many abilities were increased to 15 yards. However, as stated in the post above, almost all abilities with "Target: Area" merely had their description changed to 15 yards without actually changing their range from 12 yards to 15 yards. Please increase the range of these skills to 15 yards as intended instead of changing the descriptions back to 12 yards.

 

Furthermore, for all single-target abilities with a range of 15 yards (such as Ranged Attack, Taunt, Incinerate, Black Fang for example), you can attack enemies from within a range of 15 yards. However, if you are further than 15 yards, your character automatically moves to a 12 yard distance before attacking. Please change this to 15 yards as well.

 

One more thing - I'm not sure if this was missed, but the range of Tornado might also have been meant to be increased to 15 yards. If so, please increase the range as well.

HC needs to hire Bri as a consultant.  

 

She knows more about this game then I think just about anyone and she takes the time to test things out and break it down to find out as much information about skills, classes, builds etc.

 

Cheers Bri, your one smart cookie  ;) and I think the devs should pay attention to your posts because you have always been very informative and helpful to this community. 

 

I vote Bri as Game Moderator and Dev for hire! cheers :)


Slow but steady wins the race or something like that.

I'm just taking it slow, not sure about the steady.
