Bard Song Range, Melee Range Bugs
 

On Teal I play a Bard, and sometimes I like to kite things around and kill them with dots.

But there is a major issue which makes this difficult and dangerous: my Bard gets hit by melee even though he is very far from the mobs.

And to make matters worse, the dot song (level 1) often doesn't connect even though I am close enough to get hit by melee.

So there are two problems
1) the Bard dot isn't connecting consistently, for a given range sometimes it hits, sometimes it doesn't;

2) mobs are able to inflict melee damage on my bard even though he is very far away from the mobs, so far away that the dot song doesn't connect.


Thanks

Bug report should be something along the lines of:

NPC melee dmg is X distance, should be Y.
Song ABC range is currently 40, should be 80.

As it stands, this isn't as bug report, it's a complaint.

Mobs directly behind you can hit you from farther away. Either strafe diagonally or run a curved line to avoid this.

p99 hitbox is weird..mobs will hit you from far away if you're not strafing, but i believe it's WAD
