But if you throw something, then you can't hit with it.
For a skill to be melee, you need to hit with the weapon.

Sorry mate, you're wrong.


If it's returning back to you, it's your weapon.... if your weapon ( a ghost copy ) is hitting something.. it's technically melee still. Sorry mate, you're wrong

You can repeat it as many times as you want, it won't make it right.

Throwing something makes it a ranged skill.

Yeah, comes in the thread with no knowledge of whatever that is being discussed and just claims to block said user. Really tolerant, eh

Exactly, that's why I call it a melee RANGED attack.

Melee = Your ST copy of the weapon

RANGED = As you just said, throwing it

But the Guy is looking for a Melee build, not a build that uses a melee weapon.
Spectal Throw is a ranged skill, therefore a ranged build.
Mate, just accept it, you're wrong.

ST is not a ranged only skill though. It's partially melee (see my single target vs boss example on the last page)

No it isnt.
If it was, there would be a "Melee" tag.
That's also the reason why "Melee" Damage nodes do not affect ST dmg, since it is a projectile and therefore ranged.

q.e.d.

You cannot just inject hypotheticals like that, it's not fair

No man. You're wrong. You're supposed to get 4 mod melee jewels and melee damage nodes to scale spectra throw. That's the only way to make this build do ANY sort of damage because it's a melee attack. /S
