Thread: What is the status us melee/scouts?
Short answer - nope, melee is still screwed.
But there is hope. Both Brisc and Nrass are asking the Devs for the bonus ranged get to apply to melee. (Psst, they are both melee Rangers, so a wee bit of self service is allowed)
But, don't count on this til after the next patch, as GreenMarine, our Dev, is the man on the cities coming out and has not seen the light of day for weeks... poor lil jarhead.
be hopeful, things could be worse, you could be a chef

I have not been following scout/ranger development for sometime, I know that "creature to hit" bonus did only work with range weapons. Did they ever fix that or add something like a"melee's creature to dodge" bonus?
Has anything been done to make melee/scout better in the past two months?
Thanks
Voors,
Like JB said, both N'Raas and I are working on it.
We're both meleers (he's a TKA and I'm a Swordsman), so we feel your pain.
I'll give you more info as we get it.

Thanks for reply
I'm not sure what the correct fix should be, I do feel meleers really don't need a to hit bonus because we already hit 99% of the time. (Well fencers do I'm not sure about other melee professions) I was of the opinion that an (melee creature to dodge or counterattack bonus) was the answer. But with all the defensive up grades in testing now, it's hard to say.
