Xin Zhao grabs this and pisses everyone off.

Tristana grabs this and can bust towers out of range. Actually, so could Cait and Kog'maw. Depending on how much range it gives, even Ashe, Annie and Kennen could do it.

Range boosting items ARE NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

Range is a very, very, very important stat, and an item that everyone can get to increase it would be incredibly hard to put into a place of useful yet not overbearing. Such an item will never happen.

Yes please. My life using Udyr would be so much lulzier.

how about this !!!!!!!

the range is increased every 4th attack to a cretin amount and refreshes every 3 sec so you have to at least be near a champ with your basic range at first and targeting towers removes the effect

so it allows people to still have a chance to ghost out you cant attack towers out of range and they cant attack you from long shots away

so no possible way to attack towers and it last for 3 sec so there is a chance still for escape

unique to range class only?

1st suggestion, there's no real point to having something if it takes 3 attacks for it to take effect if it's not a damage proc.

Second (the range class) is impossible because all items are available to everyone. This isn't your classic RPG where weapons are restricted to class. People can play AP Yi, AD Annie, Tank Sona, there are ways to build champions with items you normally wouldn't see. It's impossible to make an item that's restricted to one "class" when classes don't exist, only Champions.

Tiamat. 50% physical, 35% ranged. BOOM, you die.

How about a formula? In order to be available, you have to be a ranged character. Then you get this equation:

650 - current range, then an additional 25 points of range per every 50 remaining. Ashe gets a 25 point range boost, Sivir gets a 112.5 point range boost. That puts Ashe at 625, Sivir at 537.5, and Cait at 650 (normal). Ashe may not want a silly 25 points of range, but EVERY SIVIR wants that 112.5.

EDIT: Fixed ashe numbers.

Umm, first, Tristana and Kog'maw both get longer range than Caitlyn. Thus would exist an item with a negative stat. Riot doesn't like negative stats on items (yes I know nobody would be dumb enough to buy this after figuring out it reduces their range, but I still have to point it out).

Second, as previously stated, THERE IS NO WAY to classify items by character class. The tags are there for player benefit, to the game they mean nothing. To the player, they mean "This champ does better played this way" but even that's open to interpretation (AP Alistar instead of Tank, AP Yi instead of DPS, AD Annie instead of AP...).

EDIT: Third, Ashe has a base 600 range.
