Sinvaders, Ingfarah -- Yes, to a major extent my comment was a joke. ("Tongue in cheek" is an expression used to indicate that the comment is not serious.)
Range weapons are in game and yes, their only real use is PvP, and I will stand by my statement that I believe they are overpowered in OP battles compared to melee and elemental. You are, of course, free to disagree with me. Luckily neither of us is Jena or Ma-Duk to make our will into reality.
As far as the lesser part, that it wasn't a joke, I don't like the range weapons in game at all, PvP or not. They don't match the rest of the Lore as far as I'm concerned. I wouldn't like them even if they weren't over-powered. That is a very personal feeling and why I will never be master of all skills.
