Archer's range is 19m, 22m with certain glyphs that you shouldn't bother using; the reason you were getting poor returns on damage is because you didn't know a key point to playing Archer...damage is based on how close you are. Which is why Close Quarters is such a nice skill, you should be pretty close in a lot of situations anyway.
Race matters, yes. Warrior Elin gets +3m range on Risy Fury, which serves as your best quickdodge at endgame so it's obvious how important that extra movement is, and they also have slightly higher range on most other skills, though only ~1m for the rest, that's still helpful. Lancer Elin gets +3m to normal hit. No joke, the smallest character has the longest thrust range; Baraka is actually the SHORTEST, they only get 3m compared to everyone but Elin's 4m. And guess what, ELIN AGAIN, for Sorceror gives an instant response time on traps; every other class, if you lay a trap right on top of someone, it takes it about 2-3 seconds to explode, but for Elin, you lay the trap and it immediately explodes, which is pretty nice for pve but gives an insane advantage in pvp. I've heard Castanic Archer gets slightly increased attack speed on normal attack due to their animation for it.
It's pretty clear what the most popular class is. LOL.
