This isn't the "best melee solo dps" thread, though. So I think we're just talking about viability of bow dps and rather I should yell at some ranger I am grouped with for hanging back and shooting arrows as opposed to going melee. Apparently not if they've got even a decent bow. Was a surprise to me. Glad there are some numbers to back up what, up until now, was anecdotal assertion.
The half values is because at 51+ rangers deal double bow damage to stationary targets that are not rooted ^^

The numbers Ivory just posted are very respectable though.
