I have experienced this many times in combat, when my target is definitely in range of the spell, and I have line of sight but I can't target them because they are "too high"
THis doesn't make sense to me at all, and it needlessly restricts me from using my abilities. This is particularly noticable with my ranger. My bow has the same range as hunters mark, and I can hit them with my bow, but they are too high to target with hunter's mark. There should be no hight restriction on spells, just line of sight and spell range.
While discussing bows and range though. Longbows should have longer range than short bows, right?
