Broken Ranged Skills

I'm not sure if this problem is in pve, but in pvp our ranged skills are definitely broken. It is difficulty to defend a keep, take a keep , or otherwise just engage in combat when your ranged skills are NOT even close to being ranged. Right now, the bow is acting more like a melee weapon. You have to get really close to hit anything. Even the warden's birds will not make contact. This isn't an LOS issue. Range skills have been nerfed down to melee range. @ZOS_GinaBruno please advise.

    They have patches for other bugs that will go live on 14 with next maintenance.
    For this one still no estimate, my bet is on July.

    This and the 5 piece bonuses on sets not working are the biggest dump on the game in a long time. How either got past internal testing is beyond me. These should both be corrected with emergency patches like they've done before to fix things like the crown store when it went down last.

    I literally have to stand in melee range to hit poison injection and I can barely use ficus aim to hit people on walls or below me from the upper floor of keeps.
    I drink and I stream things.

    The DK passive that gives single target melee abilities extra range is broken.

    Can’t be surprised that ZOS introduces two new game breaking bugs after fixing one. Sadly this is nothing new.

    Nothing in the patch notes, but it's working now.
    It seems like they didn't understand really what range effects they all buged and what they fixed with their internal "DK-Range-Bug".
    As a non-pet sorc since 2016 the U46 Patch Notes sound like: "Those who do not wish to interact with the pet gameplay can now replace this skill line eso as a whole."

    Yeah, they had two bugs in for the "same core issue," per Jessica:

    This bug is also present in all versions of the game for PS. I can't even play my Magsorc as it's all about keeping people at range.
