One aspect missing entirely here is that Archers fill a role much better than even fighters with Grand Mastery in bows (due to natural damage/to hit every few levels): Crowd control of weaker helpers/adds. Especially when facing enemies that the Archer may not be able to hit but has allies. The Archer is greatly beneficial to picking off enemies who resisted a fear or hold spell, and can be great at interrupting spellcasting. Not saying any one thing is *better*. BG is unique in that aspect. But the crowd control feature seems to go woefully underappreciated. You don't always have to be the one taking down the most powerful creature in a group.
