Have you played this game as a Trooper Vanguard? Storm will put you just out of reach if you're REALLY REALLY not careful and suddenly she won't get any closer and suddenly you're screaming at the monitor ELARA, *** ARE YOU DOING COME HEAL ME. Seriously, if I have every combat ability turned off on her, why can't the AI just move her into range to heal me after I've engaged 2-3 mobs? It seems simple enough. Yes, I know, I could go in closer before using Storm, but it's difficult to judge sometimes.
I mean clearly, your point is well taken. Why WOULD you want to be more than 30m away. You wouldn't, but it just happens with Vanguard combat engagement, and to me, it seems to happen a lot.
