Archery and weapons

[macbean]

I don't know if this is something that can/should be changed or if it is a misunderstanding on my part.

I have a ranger, at level 2 he took Archery as his fighting style. On this long bow, he gets the +2 attack as expected. On Darts he does not. I know there is some discussion about Archery and what it affects due to the 'ranged weapons' used in the description. some feel it should only apply to bows (since it is Archery) and some think it should apply to any true 'ranged weapon' such as darts.

I bring this up because i just added the Sharpshooter feat which also states 'ranged weapons' but DOES affect darts.
