Current SV could definitely fit a fully ranged option, allowing them to make SV more attractive without needing to be OP.
As I suggested in my post
Really, all SV needs to be ranged capable is a ranged bomb cooldown reducer coupled with full power unpruned range abilities. To make the melee option viable you need only attach a group utility to melee for SV and you would have a spec that can adequately fill either the ranged DPS role or the Melee DPS role, not unlike how old feral had role switching as a major spec strength.
