Convince me to make a ranger?

I play both a ranger and a bard, albeit only to level 15 on both right now. I usually solo since my playtime is limited. So far I love soloing on my bard due to all the utilities compared to the ranger. I usually melee while playing the songs including the DoT song. Melee damage sucks with the buffs and heal songs, damage taken is not bad and recovery is pretty quick. My ranger only has 1st Level of spells so recovery sucks due to the damage taken. 10Hp heals anyone? LOL

.If my ranger gets some high level buffs, then it's a different story. I soloed whites and yellows non-stop last night in WC with SLD and chloro. Until that damn Dragoon Zytl took me out from nowhere. He'll pay for it one of these days I am sure of it!
