I would have liked to post this in the rules forum, but this is definitely house rules territory.
I notice that at least 4 out of every encounter powers for the Avenger is ranged. I really like these powers. It makes me think of the Avenger as an exorcist, or the striker equivalent of a Laser cleric. However, all of the Avenger's stuff keys off melee (namely, his Oath of Emnity).
So I'm wondering, what would it do the balance of the Avenger class, if you allowed the Oath to work on range 5 powers, rather than melee? And, how would you change the Oath to work this way (considering how the builds focus on 'if you're in melee and your Oath target runs away)?
