I am playing a an archer and there is no point to move cause u cant kite and i die constanly. I keep moving around and the mob is far from me and still hiting me wiht melle abilities why have rnage classes if u can still get hit at any range? So i am ranger that shoots a bow while standing next to the mob. This makes no sense at all and same problem plagues the caster aswell. Fell free to post your opnions. Solo friendly to melee players not to any other class also what happened to the thief class lol.

Thief class = gone.
What you've described has been true for FFXI as well, they haven't changed it. It does kinda suck, but what I will say is that casters don't really have a problem in combat. The most annoying part of the caster is that he has very little means of replenishing his MP atm. You usually have to run back to camp to do so. There's some skills that do refill it (most at a very high lvl), but most of them are on a pretty lengthy timer, and reset whenever yo uchange class.
Oh dear a challenge and no win from range the game gets better... There is a trick but you can work it out can't you or do you need an Insane guide.

Why didn't you shadowbind it?
Barring that make friends with a lancer, they keep things in place pretty good, barring that use gravity from thaumaturge, barring that think of another of 500 possible solutions with the new system.
Thief as a class doesn't exist, some of their abilities persist though and have been distributed to pugilists and archers.

Final Fantasy 7
I did kite a few low level critters in CB. They had spawned on top of me when I was already half health. I dont remember them hitting me at range. Really you have to expect that some can and some cant or it wouldnt be 'realistic'. Try putting your weapon away and you can run faster. Default hotkey is F.
If you were fighting against the rabbits you'll notice when they are far they throw you a nut but when near they attack either with their teeth or tail forgot else I don't know.
This is not 100% sure but if true they need to make mobs walk like players because I changed for a few into an archer and shot a mole and he floated on a hole to near me but this happened only once and had high ping on 600-800 (Damn all servers are flooded and people here say it's not) maybe I lagged not sure.
I remember those. Skill called nut-kick. I laughed out loud.
