I am very curious about ranged attacks. What type are they and when you put a ranged attack in a skin which normally has no ranged attack, what type of attack is it.

I know as a Master CH and a Master BE I should know this, but of late I have spent so much time in the laboratory and in the field gathering samples I have not made and tested any of the new creations.

Anyone been able to calculate the damage of the ranged attack?

Nothing is fool proof to a sufficiently talented fool.

I think you are right Tal. I have even been hit with a dizzy from a reanged attack.

Most mobs Ive been attacked by with ranged spew some kind of green slime when doing so. I havent been able to see this on any of my ranged attack creations. Its probably skin specific in some way.

My razor cat has a ranged attack and it doesnt really do anything special other than growl at the target.

There seems to be two forms of ranged attack, from what I can tell the ranged attack can result in status effects from special attack 2. That is why you will sometimes find yourslef being diseased or poisoned from being hit with a ranged attack. The other form simply causes damage but I think those are just times when the status effect doesn't stick.
