The defense that is used is based entirely upon the attack, not the distance between the attacker and target. In other words, an attack that targets ranged defense will always target ranged defense, regardless of whether the attacked is 60 feet away or in your face.

A ranged attack is a ranged attack, no matter where it's shot from, and so is a melee attack always a melee attack, even if you're jousting with it.

Power they use. A range attack is still a range attack at point blank range.
