Message: <blockquote data-quote="Prestidigitalis" data-source="post: 5403281" data-attributes="member: 74496">What can a Warpriest do to get a decent ranged attack?With no ranged powers, the Warpriest can only attack at range with an RBA; but with neither Str nor Dex as a secondary ability score, the RBA will probably just miss, and won't do much damage even if it hits. This presents a problem when immobilized, against opponents who are flying or otherwise removed from reach, and when a charge is impossible due to any combination of distance, difficult terrain, slowed status or dazed+prone. (And even a charge will be relatively ineffective without Melee Training.)A reach weapon will help in a few cases, but the only generically practical option I can think of is to go with human and take a ranged power such as Sacred Flame as a third at-will, or half-elf and take a Wis- or Con-based ranged power for dilettante.By contrast, the Knight can get amazing synergy with a Farslayer weapon, which allows an MBA at range 5, and thereby even allows the stance to have an effect.Any suggestions? And is this a new phenomenon, or is there another class build that is similarly constrained?</blockquote>
