Increase range for short range powers

I have to agree that it would be nice if I could slot my blasts to all be the same range.
But, considering that they recently (a few issues ago) DID increase all the short range blasts from 20' to 40', I doubt we'll be getting more any time soon.
6000+ levels gained and 8 level 50's

I'm gonna have to say no. The entire reason why the t3 blasts have less range is because they require you to actually close with your target somewhat. Cone blasts have the shallower range because that range has a direct effect upon their area of effect, which is actually factored into the AoE damage formula (re: a greater area of effect means more endurance). Range enhancements are schedule B (20% from an even level SO) specifically because otherwise it would be too easy to increase your range to such a degree that no one else can attack you (a PvP issue rather than a PvE issue because of the huge increase to critter ranged attacks way back in the early issues).

I'd like to suggest increasing the range from 40 feet to 57 feet so that I can add two range enhancements and be at 80 feet to match my other powers. Or, how about increasing the range to 48 feet, and changing range enhancements to 33.3% instead of 20%. That would accomplish the same thing. |
