    It is indeed a bit suprising, but I guess the reason is that they are Rangers and not Hunters, i. e. their bond with nature is so strong that using firearms is out of the question.

    Rangers rely on a keen eye, a steady hand, and the power of nature itself. Unparalleled survivalists with traps, nature spirits, and a stable of loyal pets at their command, rangers can adapt to any situation.

        Well, they dont have explosive traps. Their flame trap probably uses some natural way of making fire.

            I tried … to more or less guess what ArenaNet’s reasoning is. Personally I wouldn’t mind Rifle on Ranger, but then I probably want Dwarf as a playable race, too. 😎
