I used range for my first 900 or so kc, started using melee and I'd guess my last 1.6k kc has been 1.4k melee 200 range kills - I only really use range if I'm trying to do 80-100 kills/day, or where I can't use melee aura due to Raids being soon, etc.
Doesn't matter though, still get eyes when meleeing.
