Limited range melee attacks

[xxxjustinxxx]

Is there anyway to limit melee attack range?
When I used to play EQ, I remember looking down from high in the air in Cazic Thule to shoot at alligators someone in the group had pulled. When I did enough damage to be the main target, it could hit me even if I was floating 20' out of his mouth's range.
That kind of thing always seemed rather annoying...

is there a "radius of attack" that could be limited on its Z plane by the height of the race/weapon being used to attack?

just thoughts bouncing around my head...
