So my group of 3, my brother, a buddy and I all got to the mid 60's with our noobs as of last night so I though I was comfortable enough and I would take out my 70Ranger that I have not played since like 2006. He also has about 100AA.

So a few questions If I might. Its been so long I was wondering what AA are most important to have. I have the endless quiver, some of the combat ferocity and archery Mastery 3 along with some others.

I have also heard of this headshot ability. Is this still viable today? Should I spend the AAs to get this ranked up? I have been searching around the net but info is sketchy. There are guides that have the ranger pulling tons of mobs and using some AOE bow spell to headshot every mob for quick AA. But I have heard rumors that this got nerfed?

The places that I used to go for infos does not seem to exist anymore. Like Rangers Glade and EQ Outriders no longer work.

Also we had a discussion amongst ourselves as to the viability of just using a straight up bow for dmg in a group vs melee. Without parsing data it seems to me like melee still out damages the bow. The bow I have is pretty decent, its like 26/20 so its pretty fast and it hits pretty hard, I just think melee is better. They all seem to think I should be doing the bow thing.
