Aspect of the Falcon bug - doesnt really add feet if you have rank 4

Aspect of the Falcon bug
I have it at rank 4 which should be Range +3, +3, +3, +3 however it appears to be barely +3.

I've been playing an Archery build for some time, well since mod 3. I noticed that my range from distance isn't what it use to be, I never really paid attention until the other day standing next to another ranger who didn't use aspect of the falcon and he was able to stand the same distance as me and fire at a target while I have "Aspect of the Falcon" on and at rank 4. Could you please change this so it actually does work? maybe the logic in the game is confused and you should just have it rank 1 +3, rank 2 +6, rank 3 +9 and rank 4 +12. Since there is a feat that allows you to do more damage the further you are from the target, it doesn't work if everyone is the same "max" range regardless of having Aspect of the Falcon on or not.

Thank you

    The feat I'm referring to is "Stillness of the Forest" it adds an extra 10% damage based on the further you are from the target. The description from the ability is vague where it doesn't really say what qualifies for the extra 10% damage, just says "farther from the target". Maybe it should be based on the rank of Aspect of the Falcon, you do an extra 10% for rank 1, 20% for rank 2, 30% for rank 3 and 40% for rank 4 :).

    Okay, we HR's could only wish for some slight boost in our Archery build dps.

    The problem with using Aspect of the Falcon is that you risk standing too far out of range of the healer as you seek to maximise your damage with this class feature. Personally I think there are far better class features available for Archer than Falcon.

    True, most HR's go the trapper build so they can dominate dps charts, however I feel HR's aren't rogues and should stand far from a distance and fire arrows. I know im a strange HR that believes the only build should be the archery build, which is funny since the only build that is the weakest is the stormwarden archery build.

    Nope my SW Archer far out-performs my PF Combat HR, which has been left Mods behind. I never sit more than 25 yards away from the target for the extra 25% Crit chance afforded by the second part of Stillness of the Forest. I net much more than 10% damage with Combat Advantage and the abilities associated with it.
