D&D 5E Do you prefer to fight with melee or ranged weapons?

[Phion]

Melee. It's not a choice. I am cursed with the Berserker axe (greatsword. DM was nice enough to give me my preferred weapon. Or evil enough to know I could not resist attuning to it).

Now my wise and calm battle master occasionally goes nuts and when he uses the disarm manoeuvre.....well he disarms them alright.

Help.
