I haven't looked through all the ranger powers, so I might be wrong, but it seems like TWF is at a distinct disadvantage compared to archery.
There are a lot of powers which require either a ranged weapon or two melee weapons and allow two attacks. This means that a TWF ranger will have to spend double the money on magic weapons to have the same attack and damage bonuses as the archery ranger. And that's on top of the obvious common sense benefit of archery, which is that you're not standing within the reach of the ettin's club.
Are TWF-only powers good enough to compensate for this?
