    [MW] MWs are now counted as ranged classes?

    I noticed today, I got targeted by ranged abilities from bosses. Had 2 tornados put on me by Blade Lord. And dread screeched like mad on empress. We didnt even notice where the extra damage was coming from till I had died to it after an explosion.

    Anything else changed?
    I do not fear death. It's just dreaming in silence.

    The blade lord part could easily be bad ranged positioning.

    Didn't clear through heroic empress, that's for tomorrow, but didnt get any wind bombs on me or wind strikes.

    Well we had 2 in melee range so its hard to say its a ranged fault. Need to look harder at tha. I also got targeted by 3 nightmare pools against Tsulong. But I was paranoid by then anyway so I stood out in ranged group which could attest to that. Id need to do feng and see what happens.

    I do have dread screech in melee however. Logs show that. I never bothered with the 5 yards before yesterday. Ugh. Im too scared to melee heal now.

    We always been counted as melee, if they changed it in 5.1 (as in today) then they have missed announcing that.

    Or simply broke something. Or some boss abilities are bugged OR what we thought we knew as truth isn't truth.

    Different ways to see it.

    A) We're counted as melee
    B) Dread Screech can now target melee(Yet only me)
    C) Tornados can be cast on melee or a ranged was in melee(Possible)
    D) Nightmares can be cast on melee who are in ranged(Was too scared to go into melee this fight. But I did get targeted at range)

    Ok. Can someone help me here. Now I'm feeling this wasn't my fault and something faulty happened. Over every attempt Ive NEVER taken any damage from dread screech. EVER. Except this one attempt. But I'm not proficient at perfectly parsing logs and I'm trying to see if I can somehow find who was affected by dread screech and if I merely took a tick from it.

    Edit: I only ask this because I was pretty much blamed for the night when this happened. 'Oh god, we've wasted x attempts and healing because you've been in melee'

    But that was before I got to see the logs. So now I want to defend myself and see if maybe its not just happenstance that puts me in the wrong place at the wrong time and someone else is really to blame.

    This repeats in all of your wipes there.
    Dread Screech : original spell, cast only on ranged.
    Dread Screech Wave: spell damaging anyone standing near person hit by Dread Screech.

    If you want to check for yourself, open log editor for all your wipes, click Paste and insert this:

    Code:
    [{"spellNames": ["Dread Screech"]}, {"spellNames": ["Dread Screech Waves"]}]
    The one pull where you got Dread Screech on yourself was probably wipe, where all ranged were dead.

    Id ask to have your babies but that'd be pushing it.

    So it seems like a case of sky is falling and MW are still considered melee unless someone else can say otherwise.
    I do not fear death. It's just dreaming in silence.

    The one ability i know that would never be put on a melee or MW monk would be amber resin from Wind lord so if we're getting that now then we're counted as ranged. If not i don't think anything has changed. I'll check personally next time I fight him

    Just killed wind lord and didn't receive resin, So i don't think anything has changed.
