Game Mechanics: Throwing Ranged Attack fails with Coldstone (ammo) equipped

[Katalysta]

To reproduce:

Create blind monk. Put on magician summoned coldstone in ammo slot. Put on magician summoned throwing daggers in ranged slot. Attempt to throw dagger.

Expected result: Dagger throws. Monk pulls. Can see.

Actual result: Incorrect error message (Your target is too far away, get closer!) no matter what range.

Workaround: Pull ammo slot to hotbar, equip coldstone. click ammo slot before pull, effectively unequipping coldstone to cursor, click throw, click ammo slot again to re-equip coldstone. Not super fun, especially with limited macro buttons.

Thanks for making a great game. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Looks much like this client bug introduced in May 2002, maybe it was never fixed:

I thought ammo always had to match the bow or throwing weapon in range?
