Excuse me if this is available already, but could you post, or preferably make either available directly under library, or on the left bar (like "conditions"), the skill range definitions ("adjacent", "near", and the relevant corresponding meters? (Only one country left in the world using feet, even the UK gave up that officially I think?))
Thanks.
Range definitions please?

boo the English system (refering to Feet, Pounds, etc.)
...metric system is simpler...
anyway... yes... this would be useful. and how much exactly is a foot in-game? appearantly, it's a 60th of the shortbow range? how did you deduce that?

I am pretty sure UK and USA are the only 2 left... they both said they were going to change it.... but did nothing to do it aside the science department... but whatever...
if they do use meter in GW... how much is a meter? we will still be in the same question anyway...

I heard that skill descriptions will be rewritten before release. Maybe then we'll see an exact ranges?

If you want metrics, play Call to Duty, where everything is is "clics", short for kilometers.
Kidding aside, I don't think it's a real distance. They could use any measure like squares, or pixels, or whatever. It's relative. When the nasty is on top of you, it doesn't really matter whether that's one foot or 3 meters, you just need to kill it.

Bow ranges are based on the definition of 'foot' used by the Elementalist Wards.
Most skills have awful skill descriptions when it comes to describing their range or area of effect. Hopefully this will be cleaned up by retail.

But I tell you what -- if you can convince the French to make English the official language of France, I'll get America to make the metric system the official measuring system of the USA.

not the same difficulty at all
it is ILLEGAL to import english terms into the french language (what they call email is one example)
while here it is not illegal to use metric and most cans bottles etc are bi lingual (so to speak)
