On the Removal of Positionals

[Valence]

The point here is that positionals are an intrinsic element of melee, just like cast times are for casters. Asking for positionals to be removed is like asking for all cast times to be instant.

There's a reason why SMN is such a contentious job for caster players.

The only intrinsic element to melee is being limited by range... Much like casting is to... casters.

Positionals are not intrinsic to melee whatsoever. They could even be added to other roles technically. Else I could say that procs are intrinsic to ranged physical just because rphys used to only have proc jobs, and yet, they're not.

There is no irreducible point of correlation between melee and positionals, unlike for melee range for melees and cast times for casters.
