It almost sounds like we are bad because we "exploit" something. Please reconsider calling it exploit. It is normal gameplay not a crime.

Its technically no difference if i use a speedup spell to gain distance -> turn&shoot or if i use a CC spell to slow the target down and run away when he gets close to me. The problem is how to balance this. You cannot remove "using range&movement to your advantage" as its tied to such games. You can only balance it (eg. with a movement penalty on shoots like you did now.)

ok, ok, i didn't want to call anyone a cheater... i just wanted to put emphasis on the fact that it's a great balance problem, specially when other classes are not able to use the same tactic.

please look at this video: does anyone of you consider this fair & challenging gameplay? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9vllA9uZ7I
(let alone how ugly it looks to be able to shoot in any direction just because you can move during the attack)
