Sword of Spirit
Legend
I notice a lot of people talk about ranged combatants due to their mechanical effectiveness in 5e. But for me, I just don't like playing a ranged combatant (unless I'm a primary spellcaster). I want to get up into my foe's face and smash it, or sneak around behind them and stab them, etc. Standing back and shooting at them just doesn't have the visceral appeal. I'll also note that the vast majority of other players I've played with prefer melee over ranged also. Ranged attacks are mostly just supplements for when you can't get into their face.
So which do you prefer (ignoring issues of mechanical effectiveness)?
If you prefer one but play the other for mechanical reasons, go ahead and mention that.
