Ballista totem placement

Ballista totems need an alt. behaviour placing them as far as possible.

That is not a console thing. Ballista totems are placed at your feet as intended. If you want to place totems at range, the non-ballista kind is what you want.

lol no, idc if this is consistent between platforms. Gameplay wise there is no reason why ranged spell totems can be placed away from characters and balista totems can't.

It's not a gameplay thing, it's a "world feel" thing.

Spell totems can be *summoned* far away because they are magically summoned.

Ballista totems are "placed" at your feet because they are complicated physical contraptions that you are setting up as you go.

Why draw the line there, when we don't have physical limitations like ammunition, etc? I don't know, but that's the logic behind it.

There is a chance they'll change it.

Traps used to placed at your feet as well, and they were eventually changed to be "thrown".

I'm doing ballista totems and it doesn't really bother me tbh
