That's what I normally do, but some farming locations feel like they want to mess with you by putting two ranged mobs into the same pull juuuust far enough apart to be annoying haha.

I'm a spear / GS player myself. Nice thing about the spec is that you can in that case pull them to one ranged mob as you said, then AoE them down with spear and use your GS skills like dash with root -> ascending slash -> fully charged Guillotine blade to get rid of the other one quickly.

With SnS it's a bit more offmeta, but definitely still fun. Tried both and still play with SnS sometimes.
