**Ranged**
Ranged is one of the three combat classes in PkHonor. It involves using bows, crossbows, and thrown weapons to damage opponents from a distance. Some lower level Ranged armour can be made from animal hides. Players who specialize in this skill are known as rangers or archers.
Rangers are capable of having the highest accuracy of any combat type. The combat triangle dictates that rangers are strong against mages but weak against melee fighters.
The ability to attack from a distance means that a player can safespot a melee monster while fighting from safety. Keep in mind that some melee monsters have high Ranged Defence, so a high Ranged level may be needed. Crossbows are useful against monsters with high Defence, as they are very accurate.
