My final question is about Ranger. I was surprised to find out how generally not focused on ranged combat Rangers are in Everquest and my interest in them has only continued to rise as I learned more about their tools and capabilities, but I have also become aware of their reputation as generally "useless", lacking the damage of rogues, durability of knights, and spell coverage of druid. My question is: Does this reputation translate to a bias against rangers in game? For example: will I have a hard time finding groups for dungeons as I level up a ranger?

Just to hone in on this part, anyone who considers rangers useless in group dungeons is being willfully ignorant.
All of the drawbacks you noted are 100% true, BUT they have a huge toolbox from which to draw their skills tailored to many different situations. They are fantastic pullers, they can track farther than they can see, they can assist with CC with root, they have great snap aggro, and I could go on....
On my bard, Rangers are one of my favorite classes to duo with, and I love to have one in any group i am a part of.
