[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8159688, member: 93670"] I regularly run encounters at ranges of more than twenty of thirty... or... as your post mentions ranges like sixty & sometimes more. Not every campaign takes place in a dungeon &making ranged weapons have absurd ranges on the assumption they dungeon crawl only campaign requirements will wall off problems that result. Even in the example itself the ranger wasn't far from a door he could have walked towards done a free object interaction to open and taken a step or two back. The 5e illusion of choice is that the ranger could reasonably do anything but move away and maybe hunters mark then do fly the full attack chain because the ranges are insanely overly generous among other design signs like having all damage beyond zero just go away. It only looks otherwise in his example because he's trying to show how doing the pf2 options would work out in 5e [/QUOTE]
