Message: <blockquote data-quote="Guest 7034872" data-source="post: 8705953">^^ I think that's right. Dungeons are such different environments from outdoors, and out of doors a weapon that can go over 300' is a big, big plus.I don't know if ranged weapons are too powerful or if melee weapons are too lackluster, but I do think somewhere between those two possibilities sits a real problem. Add to this that the ranged weapons use DEX, not STR and that we now have these fancy-dancy "finesse" melee weapons, and it gets harder and harder for me to see why I'd build a character--even a fighter--in whom I put the STR stat at top position.It feels like the really hardcore martial melee weapons ought to have something they can do that other weapons just can't. I've no notion what that something should be, but there should be something.</blockquote>
