    Nice idea though. I almost thought ranged combat returning to the game.

    I can understand smite evil, but why wouldn't any other stuff be useful with ranged? I mean, what's the justification?

    Honestly taking it away from ranged is sort of dumb, especially considering the favored weapon of the silver flame is the longbow.

    even better reason to question this. Impaqt, this might be a good one for the devs. While I understand smiting being melee, the rest of the perks and bonuses that Pallys have should be both.

    Whats broke about sneak attack damage? I dont use a bow often on Pokah, but I definatly see the sneak attack when I'm in range.

    I do too, but not often. It like skips a few hits, even when I dont have the aggro. My Rogue is ranged cuz she's squishy, and i have a WoP longbow...

    that 30 foot range does seem to get a bit tricky. I also find I get the Sneak Attack less often if they turn slightly to the side with ranged, however, it works fine with melee. I don't know if there is an issue with measuring distance or what the overall cause is. It would definately annoy me if I used range more.

    No clue for Divine Sacrifice, but I know you Smite Evil cannot be used with ranged weapons (and it's working as intended).

    If by broken you mean that the distance from which we get sneak attacks is too short, I agree.

    Otherwise, I don't see what you're talking about.
