Return of Reckoning

What about melee ? Aren't they inferior to ranged classes in pvp ? I've played plenty of mmorpg and that's the main thing . You always gotta choose a class for pvp or pve , you can't have both ,atleast not optimal . I really have hard time choosing a class because I have no idea how the classes work...

Hello , new player here .

Can you tell me which ranged classes are good for pvp ?

Doesn't matter which side , because I'm still deciding .
