D&D 4E What abilities and paragon paths would you like to see for the 4e ranger?

Since Drizzt's TWF predates the 2e PHB by some margin, it is pretty clear that TSR made rangers into TWFers due to Drizzt rather than the other way around. That said, I don't think they forgot so much as made a deliberate decission based on the popularity of the character.

I'll have to find the post from a designer on another board. Salvatore was told about the two weapon fighting for rangers while the designers were still working on 2e and incorporated into the character.

Edit: Here is the link to Monte Cook's board that I took from an old ENWorld post by Morrus on the subject.

Pirate and Ninja. That goes for all other classes, too, btw.
