I think thats the pessemistic way of looking at rangers. Flip that around and ask what other classes can track, DPS, tank, heal, And ranged DPS? Hybrids are the most versatile as a rule of thumb (healing/buffing/fighting), but no other class has as much utility use as a ranger! We offer more possible solutions to a problem than any other class can. Also, we can cover so many bases - healer dies, we can chain heal to survive the mob; tank dies, we can tank that mob allowing the group to recover; no slower, we can earthcall (well... it helps!); add arrives, we can kite or snare & root it. In an emergency, it's a good ranger you want in the group because above any other class we have the potential to fix problems.
