The whole idea from the start was to give rangers a proper mechanic for arrows and ranged weapons. From a dps perspective rangers were doing well beforehand so to up the current damage for the level 80 items wasn't going to work. Using those as a baseline, I kept their damage the same but now you have the arrow scaling problem fixed. This in turn had some effect on lower level items but a level 74 bow like the RSB shouldnt be outdamaging the fabled epic anyways. I know its not exactly what you wanted from the fix but the gain you would have had would have put you far beyond any class.
