Melee Weapon Range - need explanation
|
I need some more clarifications on Melee Weapon Range.
I have read that Melee Weapon Range from Master of the Arena Notable does not apply to Sweep Cleave and Ground Slam - i.e. most used AoE Melee Skills. link What I can't find anywhere is: When does this passive is taken into account? On what skills does it apply? Since I don't know when it does apply I cannot use it at all! Skills list:
Spoiler
Cleave - doesn't apply
Domination Blow Glacial Hammer Ground Slam - doesn't apply Leap Slam Heavy Strike Infernal Blow Lightning Strike Sweep - doesn't apply Double Strike Dual Strike Puncture Viper Strike Whirling Blades I would like some clarifications from Mark_GGG. Would be much appreciated. Thank you Last edited by nebunelux#1236 on Mar 8, 2013, 9:28:16 AM Last bumped on Dec 11, 2014, 10:21:14 AM

On all melee single-target skills (including lightning strike's main hit)
On cyclone. Maybe whirling blades? IGN: Jerk, Princess

I have made a list of all current melee skills:
Please contribute to this list to see how we can use Melee Weapon range. Cleave - doesn't apply Domination Blow Glacial Hammer Ground Slam - doesn't apply Heavy Strike Infernal Blow Lightning Strike Sweep - doesn't apply Double Strike Dual Strike Puncture Viper Strike Whirling Blades |

also very interested to see if this works on whirling blades.. giving it larger aoe might make it viable

It increases the melee weapon range.
Cleave, sweep, ground slam, etc do not use the weapon range - they have their own AoE radius that they use, which is notable bigger. So they are not affected. Anything which is making an actual weapon swing like the default attack will be using the weapon's range, and thus benefit. Cyclone uses the weapon's range to determine AoE radius.

Mark, could you plz provide an example of 2 wpns and their difference in ranges, so that we might better understand what a range of "2" is?
thx |

One-handed melee weapons have a range of 4, two-handed melee weapons have a range of 5
