Let me just start by saying that my max hit with a bow on normal mobs without 2.0 click is 3,548, my max hit on zombies is only 2,236, about 33% less than on the average mob, not sure why. We get the "your bow does double damage", so it can't be a root issue.
Melee damage, however, is not effected. I hit for 1193 max on both CB mobs and zombie mobs.
This is important because comparing bow damage and melee damage on these mobs is not going to give accurate information
All of these parses are with max haste, all are on Vlan, and all are with the ranger buff "Eagle Eye". All parses are also with the +80% DD foci on the epic 2.0.
None of the parses are done with Champion or Might, only Sune buffs + self buffs.
With that, here's my parse on the zombies with NO epic click, 95/20 ratio + 12 dmg arrow, 2050 base ATK:

If you take this further you can kind of get around the mitigation issue. If you add 33% dmg to 1654 DPS then you get about 2190 DPS (this would be non-2.0 DPS). If you add 33% DPS to 2423 DPS then you get 3222 DPS. So overall, ranger melee DPS in ST will do about 30% DPS more than bows, which seems more than fair to me.
Also, I don't even have the +16 damage arrow from Final Arbitor. My bow DPS would be a bit higher if I did.
