I don’t know if I agree about 2H Ranged being all crap. I’m by no means a great player, but I followed x1x2’s
guide for his Runic Bolts Tactician, it has been very strong in campaign excellent against Nemeses, and very good in Crucible for me as someone that barely touches Crucible. It’s very satisfying standing ground against Kuba, for instance, not having to kite at all.
