R/W for PVE?

i found some previous posts dealing with R/W, but most of those were aimed at a pvp assassin-like character.

now, it seems like it would be fun to have the ability to do some light tanking (or running) should the occation demand in pve, but will a warrior secondary be limiting when playing a more traditional ranger role as opposed to other secondaries? basically, is it a waste of a secondary when i'm using a bow?

thanks in advance for any advice or build suggestions.

I like Watch Yourself and Barrage. YOu can sit yourself between your casters, and add a bit more to the team as you're spamming barrage.

I personally only use ranger/warrior for a melee fighter. I'd rather increase damage with a conjure or something. You already have stances as a ranger, why bring in warrior stances as well?
