Explosive jars, why can you do this?

Hi, I’ve played Conan Exiles for a quite some time now and I’ve had my fair share of PVP. There’s always something thats bothered me about the way explosive jars work. Why is it that you can place it 20 feet away from yourself? I feel like this mechanic should be changed so that your character needs to physically place it down, or have the ability to toss it and have it explode on impact. It makes no sense to me that you should be able to set an explosive jar behind someone’s barricade thats suppose to keep you out. It also stops people from having agility/encumbrance builds just for the sole purpose doing drive-by’ s with the explosive jars. Like I mentioned before, you shouldnt be able to magically place it somewhere that you cant reach to begin with.

PS - explosive jars should also immediately explode when placed on lava… just saying…

I have wondered this as well.

IT also allows for the jars to be used in melee. totally breaking the immersion part of why one would melee. Hand to hand, or weapon v weapon. Between palisades, jars, and horse & spears, why even bother with anything else. On horse back one can go full health, enc 3rd perk, 3 strength, no grit and no agility.

I have seen suggestions for an animation to place the explosive, and to me that makes sense.
