By the way I fully expect an onslaught of ntov geared rangers posting cherry picked parses of names fights. I parse every group I'm in and your average level-and-gear-appropriate ranger will fall consistently below monk, rogue, mage pet (never mind the mage + pet), necro + summon_pet, necro charm pet, and charming enchanter.
Realistically you're looking at hovering with or right below a comparably geared warrior.

Rangers lack triple attack. This is a pretty big deal for melee dps. It is accurate to say only knights are worse melee dps.
The true strength rangers bring to a raid are buffs. Call of the Predator and Strength of Nature are huge for raid wide dps. Unfortunately, most rangers on pickup raids don’t get this.

bard's aren't melee, bards are just the god class. they can exp to 60 in a couple days naked and alone :-p
edit also: To be fair, while ranger raid dps is awful, it was far far far better in 2001. With veeshan's peak only being fully cleared one or two times on most servers before velious came out. (half because of how few keys got made total due to simple spawn times, but also half because my raid guild wiped to trak 13 weeks in a row before we won the raid every week until velious came out. which was typical on most servers if not worse. third half being that VP was a beast to progress through back before there was any data on it on the internet.) Before wizards had their quest lure raid nukes for dragons and giants. First kills against things like yelinak sontalak and the warders were in the year 2001 boosted quite a lot by ranger trueshot dps. So maybe they'll be a bit more useful if "green" happens. | ||

I don't think Meg is wrong on any of his points.
Simply put Ranger looks like a fun and balanced class to me. The funny thing is that in Planes of Power Rangers are better than Monks at literally everything: pulls (harmony of nature), tanking (monks get ac cap raped in PoP), damage (trueshot + endless quiver), and utility (tons of spells and track). | ||
