Default Fix the height difference bug

Everyone who plays Ranger or Paragon on occasion knows this annoying thing:
You're standing higher or lower than your target, you can hit him with normal attacks, but you can't use attack skills on him!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who is highly annoyed by it. Now I'm sure there's some smartasses around going to say "Walk down to him you lazy bastard!".

Well, in GvG, or actually any kind of PvP, positioning is quite important. If you have the advantage of being able to hit from a distance, use it!

Also, it's quite unlogic that we can hit them with normal attacks but not with skills.

Wtb fix!

Occasionally happens to me as well, and it's quite annoying, and not really fair indeed.

Part of being a "Range"r is being able to attack from above and a distance...have noticed that this is becoming more impossible.

Fix this one, and the one where every bowshot is obstructed if the target is standing on a bridge or stairs, EVEN IF I'M RIGHT NEXT TO THEM!

Yeah, I think LongBows have disadvantage if you look at it this way.

Yes it gets me very annoyed when I am at the maximum range of a longbow and the enemy is out of casting range but then I can't use an attack skill on that enemy until I do get in casting range. That is pretty much destroying the advantage of a longbow, to attack casters when out of their casting range

i've had this problem MANY times, and lost the advantage of hidden distraction of skills due to this.
also /signed for the view is obstructed on bridges and stairs, happens quite often.
also /signed for being shot through pillars and the like.

This bug was introduced with one of the updates though. It wasn't allways a problem. But as it is now, I just can't activate skills when i'm out of shortbow range, despite the bow i'm using.
