Really depends on the party.

You've never been in unconventional groups? Where you have a mage and a rogue? Or something else that makes the conventional "tank and heal" gameplay fall apart?

That is where a hate-kiting ranger with a good bow can be pretty handy (especially one with a windstriker that stuns!!!).

The skydarkener is nice...the proc is pretty neat...but the ratio on it is actually worse than a bow of the huntsman. So really the only difference between the two is 100 damage between their procs.

I wish I had a parser so I could do some tests on my melee vs my bow ....I think it would be interesting.

I would like to see the level 51 ranger that can melee the 2 spawn of ice giants outside of everfrost and keep up with the spawns. If obviously melee is stronger than bows :P
