Quote:If you are never in any danger, then, yes, that's a problem. Monsters are supposed to be dangerous, that's an integral part of the game. If multishot can solo the entire game without even seeing a non-boss monster, that's a problem.Utilizing skills like Fireball and MS at a "safe" distance does, of course, have it's drawbacks. It's obviously very hard to aim it (Fireball at least), you're most definitely not gonna have any chance at the loot if someone else is near, and you wont know when the enemy is dead. My fireball sorcie also does most of her killing within one screen, but there are occasions where I wish to use the tactical advantage that the extremely long range of Fireball provides, where I am prepared to deal with aforementioned drawbacks to gain in safety, such as when battling lebs, mslebs, or extremely dangerous ranged fighters (de seis).
Should I not be allowed to do this? Why would Fireball extend to such great distances if I shouldn't?
Quote:So basically ALL that this range nerf is designed for is to prevent parking. Blizzard would have to have done a very poor job of testing to have the range be such that if you *were* in the party, you still sometimes *didn't* get exp.Then I am satisfied, preventing parked leechers and party members going out on little solo adventures in the same map with this method will most likely not interfer with the artillery playing style.
In my mind, my dreams are real. No one's concerned about the way I feel.
