World Range Stat (id) (97.8% Positive Support) [46 Votes Total]

That's why I want this to be added. So people would have more reasons to use melee.

 

I want to make the 11 foot pole build +1

 

This idea has its fair share of pros and cons. The Range ID would add an element to melee attack, of course, but it would also be a bit excess if it were to have such great base number. And so if we base this ID on the 1block = 1mt stat, then its common ID would be around 1 to 5, which would be exactly useful. If we think about a stat like Mana Regen, Attack Tier, which affect the damage you deal greatly, and then think about Range, then Range would seem like it's less effective in terms of damage.

There are few more problems in the idea, which I would talk about, but generally the idea is okay and would be useful in the game if it had some changes. That's why I voted for Maybe instead of no. It isn't a good suggestion now, but it can be one if some of said changes are made.

 

I'm back from the additude adjustment camp! Let's bump this thread!

 

*snaps in Cataclysm*

 

none of yall realise that apoc and cata could have - range stat.

 

So uh, I got this sword here. It's about 3 feet in length, and I can maybe jab at enemies 4 1/2 feet away from me if I extend my arm. But, thanks to my +5 range stat, my arm grows 17 feet longer, and now I can attack enemies from afar with my disgustingly long arm. Yeah, there's a reason why fantasy rpg games don't have stats like these. It's also called melee for a reason, it's meant to be close ranged.

 

Can you explain to me how archers never run out of arrows?

 

magic quivers.

 

yeah like the other person said make archer arrow velocity increase

 

Good idea ..

 

ok you might have a point.

 

ETERNAL BUMP

 

Bump on OP's request.

 

I thought he got banned

 

He did, but he asked me to keep his suggestions more or less alive.

 

If implemented I think this should be in smaller increments than a block which I believe isn't possible. One block is pretty advantageous unless it comes with sufficient ramifications, so I'd be ok with it if they implemented ramifications on items like they do with attack speed a lot. If it was implemented in a similar fashion to attack speed I'd be ok with it, but in general I'm not very high on this idea.

 

So he's going on the forums or trying to edit what he's doing through you? Sounds against the rules to me, as he's trying to communicate using the forums which he is barred from. Although it's just to bump a thread, so you're probably fine
