Rangers get an innate attack bonus starting at level 55 iirc.

Not sure if that's accurate. It could simply that a 55+ the Offensive skill cap increased for rangers. The only thing that Offense skill seems to do here is give small increase to attack power, 1 per offense skill and maybe increase the max melee dmg by a small amount. From What I know, the largest effect on DPS is Gear>Levels>Haste>Stats. Obviously, Melee always parse better than non-melee classes due to Double attack + Damage bonuses post 30. I don't think that the skills/stats has as large a effect on player DPS as all Gear though. I don't have access to a 60 Knight yet or I would parse it. I do have a 60 monk and 60 Ranger I can parse. If I have time later tomorrow, I will try to parse of both of them.
