So...is the Ranged Role gone? Are we in a Reverse HW?

You're having me think : maybe they do plan in Verse fights so heavy on mechanics and movement it will bring melee and casters down by 1000 rDPS (and so on par with range).

Hence the absence of change on ranged's DPS. Cause yeah they're in the gutter for the first tier (1000-1500 behind)

And as Lastelli noted, you could count on one hand the amount of speed kills running double Caster in every single fight combined. This idea the Range are on the cusp of being replaced is simply a myth. It hasn't happened this entire tier including an Ultimate fight where Black Mage, and especially Summoner, were absolute monsters. Of course, I do still think the Range are doing less than they should but they aren't being excluded nor will they come 5.2.
