Perhaps you don't know what AoE means? Cleave, Ground Slam, Cyclone, etc., are all both melee and area of effect.

ok so what you are saying that killing mobs with ranged damage is melee?


Do I really have to spell it out for you?

Ranged: From a distance.
Melee: Up close and personal.
AoE: (Area of Effect) Damage or ability that affects an area. Can be either melee or ranged.

Examples of ranged AoE skills:

Firestorm
Rain of Arrows
Freezing Pulse(Projectile with small AoE)
Curses

Examples of melee AoE skills:

Cyclone
Ground Slam
Sweep
Leap Slam
Enduring Cry

ALL melee requires you to get in the monster/enemy's face.
I don't see how you can confuse AoE with ranged skills, seeing as most of the AoE in this game is melee.

Ranged AoE is actually not that common in this game because support gems(such as LMP, GMP, and Chain) make it so area damage is not required to take down large packs efficiently.

with freezing pulse you have to be somewhat close btw.
People seem to be confused on the subject.

When people talk Melee (ways to improve it etc), they mean being up close and personal with the monsters, adding alot more risk than if being out of range of the monster's melee attacks.

Range 4-6.

If you can use an attack that hits the enemy but the enemy cannot hit you due to you being too far away, then it is not in melee-range.

If you wield a Hammer that can Summon Meteors from the Sky, it is not in melee-tange.

If you wield a Sword that can shoot out Energybeams or Lightning from afar that knocks back enemies, it is not in melee-range.

I love you guys.
Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me.

Unless you use faster projectiles like 90% of all freezing pulse users.

It does less damage how far you are away from the target, you have to be close to deal any sort of damage....

"Projectile Speed: The Faster Projectiles support and x% increased Projectile Speed mods will affect Freezing Pulse, causing it to dissipate farther from the caster, effectively increasing its range. Freezing Pulse modified by projectile speed will cause more damage and have a better chance to freeze at every point along its trajectory than a slower Freezing Pulse projectile would, because it has had less time to dissipate. "

Wat

Last time I checked, you can one-shot yourself with freezing pulse due to ele reflect mobs that are off your screen. If you do not use faster projectiles with freezing pulse you are nerfing yourself heavily.

Personally I have never used the freezing pulse skill, but I know how good it is.

YES.

FINALLY.

Now just to get an auto-walk hotkey that doesn't consume a quickbar slot.
