Does magic count as ranged?

In the intro you mentioned the 3 archetypes as melee, ranged, and magic. I'm just double checking we can use magic as ranged since you categorized it as it's own archetype.

Thanks

Totally, magical projectiles do count as ranged!

Nice! Quick question. With regards to viability, does this mean that ranged has to be OP compared to melee? Or do we just have to balance properly?

Ideally a good game would be balanced properly: some games seem to just have ranged combat just because it’s a staple. In terms of viability, the ranged combat should be a good option and not just tacked on just to have it. Hope I helped!
