The majority of the MS community who aren't Rangers would agree that Snipers are the better of the two 3rd job classes. However, I disagree with your conclusion about the unnecessity of shooting speed when not shooting continuously, because the shooting speed of the bows / crossbows does not only apply to the speed between each arrow that is shot, but also the time it takes to actually get off a shot.
The case of Rangers vs. Snipers is simply speed versus power, and since speed isn't as important as power is to most people, Snipers are preferred more often. Ice shot, as you mentioned before, is another thing that gives Snipers the slight edge over Rangers. In my honest opinion, if Rangers had ice shot instead of fire shot, a lot more people would be choosing the Ranger path, if not all. :\
That aside, does anyone play on Windia?
