Level 51 - Rangers get the innate ability to do double damage to stationary mobs
Level 55 - Rangers get the Discipline "Trueshot", which gives more criticals and higher damage
Level 59 - Rangers can spend Alternate Advancement Points on "Endless Quiver" and "ARCHERY Mastery" which gives them the ability to do up to 100% more damage with a never-ending supply of arrows
Level 62 - Rangers can spend Alternate Advancement Points on "Head Shot" which gives them the chance to instantly kill a green mob with a bow shot
Rangers get spells that enhance their ARCHERY, give them the ability to slow the movement of the mobs, and have more bows available to them, than any other class.
Rangers are second to none when it comes to ranged combat with weapons. "Range"r, think about it. Rangers are in the top 3 with toe-to-toe damage dealing, following both the rogue and the monk, closely. While Rangers don't have the Hit Points or Armor Class to compete with Warriors, Paladins or Shadow Knights for Damage Absorbtion, Rangers can dish out more damage per second than any of the 3 "Tank Classes".
Rangers are a very versatile, adaptable class, capable of much more than just dealing damage, even if it is what they do best. Rangers are the only class which can adjust their ability to track to make it easier to find what they are looking for. Rangers are able to tank, if absolutely necessary, and maintain agro as well as any warrior, shadow knight or paladin, when played properly. Rangers can also avoid agro, if they should choose to do so, with the Jolt line of spells.
All in all, the ranger, has brought me more enjoyment in EverQuest, than all the other classes I have played, combined. I enjoy the versatility, abilities and fun that I have with the ranger.
But, for ANY class that can use a bow to claim that they are better than a ranger with a bow, is just ridiculous. Obviously, anyone who made that claim, not only doesn't know the ranger class, but seriously needs to learn their own class, as well.
