interesting grouping of threads

It was disappointing to see that most of the people who posted to a lot of these threads, don't seem to be around any more... only a handful were created by me.

The point was obvious... Tetra once again wanted to show how long ranged has gone without a serious look. All the while implying that maybe them folks left due to it...

I personally felt the point was rather clear, but like in all threads about ranged, there seems to be some who are intentionally obtuse and want to ignore it or various facts. Yes DT is correct in that a large part of the reason for me posting this was to draw attention to just how badly ignored ranged has been by Nevrax and to show that it is likely that they have lost customers due to their refusal to address a tree that ranges from broken to utterly nonviable. It also had the nice side benefit of showing that the vast majority of threads about ranged were started by someone other than me despite recent claims by some folks.

I don't expect this thread will have any more impact than any of the ones that came before though. The GM's are tired of listening to complaints about ranged and powerless to do anything about it.... and a complete lack of any adjustments to fix ranged into a useful and viable skill, all through beta and all through retail, is a rather disappointing fact that shows Nevrax as being completely uninterested in addressing the skill's glaring problems at all. The inevitable claims of "there are a lot of things they want to do with it and it takes time" are crushed by the incredibly long time frame that this skill tree has been utterly ignored.

Go tetra! I hope they take notice some day.

oh I get it. Range weapons stink, well we all know that. jk

I haven't left the game. Yes ranged needs an overhaul, I tried ranged a few times in the past and found it unviable as a main weapon. I have heard of others that use the ranged tree to "boost" their melee SP pool, and not much more.

I was hoping to play a gun slinging Tryker, but ended up a digging Fyros...go figure.
