Hybrids offer control in lieu of superior performance. An active and intelligent player is able to make up for a group who has a few less skilled/geared players or save the day when it hits the fan.
Pure DPS, healing, tanking and control is ideal. It’s the fantasy football dream team. Throw in non-crappy people behind those classes and this game gets trivially simple. Reality though is that dreams don’t always happen. In a raid scenario pallies, sk’s, rangers, bards, and even druids have select roles. A few buffs and some alternative tasks. In grind groups they *can* again with the right pilots change how a fight ends up. I had a pretty well-geared rogue on live (full Skyshrine, Ragebrinfer and Vyemm Fang). Dps was impressive but by myself I was frail. If the healer dropped I was dead. If the warrior couldn’t hold aggro my dps tanked. I retired that toon for a SK and never looked back. Kinda hurt the guild but I found ways to fill in. Pulled Vindi once or twice. With the Ranger I’m enjoying SOW, track and the variety of spells with a modicum of solo ability. The game is about fun. If you think a class is fun that’s the goal, right? | ||

There are some who just like to trump up the positives to the point of making it sound like rangers strut around Norrath in some sort of demi-god status, and that's just not the case. That's the price hybrids pay for utility.

every single pure melee does more damage
therefore, there is no reason to bring a ranger to a raid other than a single ranger for call of the predator, call of earth, and strength of nature | ||

Weapon shield is pretty good too. Just saying. I don't care if I'm parsing particularly high on my ranger honestly. I only burn TS on low risk sure kills.
