It's harder than NOT having to be anywhere near them.
Actually you are getting your logic in a twist. Let me help you out, you can thank me later.
An assassin has to get in close to kill quickly, but can cast all important abilities on the move (except a couple of ranged I know but thats irrelevant).
Mages have to keep outside melee distance while not moving.
Mages dont 'not have to be near' they have to 'not be near' which is not at all the same thing. With the addition of the factor 'not be near and not be moving' it is substantially different.
Let me help you out. It is easier to stand at 20 meters away and nuke someone, than it is to get within melee range and attack someone. That is what I said.
How can you possibly think that? Are you stupid,or just don't want to concede that fact that your wrong. It is a thousand times easier for a melee class to simply walk up to a caster and start meleeing them,than it is for that caster to keep that meleer at range to nuke them
Where did I ever say 'keep at range' or 'avoid' or 'get away from'? I never did. It is easier to be 20 meters away and click a button, than it is to run forward ANOTHER 20 meters and hit a button. It is easier to stop moving closer sooner. It is easier to hit someone from 20 meters, than 2 meters. It is easier to nuke someone than melee someone. It is easier to stand at range, than to have to close into melee combat. I never said 'it is easier to maintain distance than it is to maintain melee range'. Read what I said.
