Also, sacrificing STR in a bunch of slots to prioritize hp/ac above all means you're gonna reduce our already low damage. HP/AC is important, obviously, but you gotta strike a balance IMO.
So it's ok to be a 4th/5th string dps but not tank? Squishy rangers are AIDS that never get reinvited. You will not notice the lack of strength nearly as much as the lack of hp/ac. That's not even considering that "dps" rangers pull aggro often and will need the tank stats anyways(especially off warrior/monk tanks).

Groups will not remember you for your mediocre dps. They will remember you for being surprisingly more resilient then every other ranger that foolishly tunnels offensive stats.
