The VOIDRUNNER'S CODEX is coming! Explore new worlds, fight oppressive empires, fend off fearsome aliens, and wield deadly psionics with this comprehensive boxed set expansion for 5E and A5E!
You're still making ranged attacks, i.e. shooting arrows with a bow. But you threaten an area and can make AoO's, and your shooting doesn't provoke AoO's. So they're ranged attacks that act a bit like melee attacks.
