Rangers with the relevant aa were in high demand for raids and groups in luclin and PoP. By plane of time gear, melee ratios started to catch up enough that meleeing became an option. In later expansions, archery fell back to sub par damage outside of true shot.
Prior to luclin it was pretty bad dps but did have some utility for soloing. It would allow you to damage them without them hitting you which cut down on downtime and might let you solo something that you otherwise could not.
Luclin made rangers what they should have been from the start.

I spent 3 solid months grinding AA's soloing in...er that wierd place off of Umbral with the little aliens that was mostly empty. totally worth it, I felt like a badass for the first time in EQ.
