arrows are cheap so thats not a issue at all. if your crying about us being to melee centric dont use your melee skills. I can put out about 30k more if i use all of them easily 

If its not an issue why not get rid of them? Oh because it IS an issue, its just not a significant problem.

Way to over simplify on the melee point, so I'll elaborate.

I hate how melee is needed to reach any significantly high DPS. I think a min/max ranger should be able to top the parse without using any melee skills. I'll even go beyond that and say using melee CA's instead of ranged CA's as a ranger should be a detriment to DPS, not a significant boost, and only useful for when an opponent closes the distance to the point you can't use ranged CA's. Again, if I wanted to use melee to do a huge part of my DPS, I would have made one of the other multiple melee based DPS classes. Ranger's needing melee to DPS well in a performance environment is redundant.

But again I will point out this is my own personal aesthetic and even though rangers are 'fine' from a purely performance standpoint I still think there are some fun factor changes that could be made to increase enjoyment of the game. If you don't think that is at least as important as parses I'm forced to wonder why you even play video games.

Just because we don't have a bunch of problems that are 8-10's on the screwed scale doesn't mean there isn't any issues at all.
