Dont understand why people think a ranger's dps is similar to a monk's, or "a tad below" as many people are saying. In my opinion, this is utter BS. And hold back on the trolling, I dont care, it's my opinion, not yours, and I won't be back to this thread to hear any crying. As far as groups go I don't see a need to ever have a ranger (other than tracking). To me a ranger is just for snare. Which a druid can do as well as back up heals, and utility. Necros and bards are the "swiss army knife". Rangers are just the last choice, with wizards coming in a close second.
That being said, if you want to play a ranger, and you enjoy being a ranger, what's it matter what anyone else thinks? As useless as rangers are, I would gladly group with 5 good rangers over the average melee classes that fumble, pull while the puller is pulling, runs ahead of the puller to look around, casters that are AFK 95% of the time and monks that use cool weapons rather than the higher dps weapons that are half the cost. These forums are nothing but a poisonous outlet for children to cry, brag, and bicker (you'll see this in the responses I get to my post). Just play the game and enjoy.
