The melee distance seems way better but the Z axis melee range seems abit off. Was pvping in the oasis yesterday and pelled a melee's levitate. Even though my feet were at his head he still couldn't get in range to attack me. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Sorry if this has already been brought up I didn't find anything in my search.

Increased z range closer to what previous melee range was. Tried removing totally. And was tons of too far away spam from client.
Pending update.

Hrm WTF I tested this as I killed a Holocaust player this weekend. I was on a spire above Sol A ent in LS and was able to rain down cleric nukes with the authority of Brells beard on a player who was rooted at Sol A ent. Did you test any other spells? When were the pictures taken?
P.S.
You better not be ducking in that last pic you panzy.

i noticed this on 2 occasions, both times with Blizzard, yesterday
i couldnt cast it on the person until i was almost the same Z-level or nearly pointblank above/angle

blizzard has always been weird when it comes to the axis and it's range seems extremely low, but yeah i remember having to almost blizzard myself when i was levitated over my target trying to cast it on him.

Maybe it's just Blizzard or rains in general then. If you want to test this let me know. I finally got torrent of poison on my shammy. We could make it rain together.

No Z-axis / LoS for anything in pvp pls
Except bolts going through walls

Live was this way wasn't it? you could theoretically swing up the z-axis indefinitely, but it was extremely difficult to judge where they actually were once the height gap was too substantial.
