Basicly, groups of warriors and archers don't mix very well. What happens is your 2-3 archers hit the mobs before the warriors get to them, and the mobs start bouncing around and the warriors dont get a chance to unleash their dps. When you put 5 warriors together, everyone is moving at the same pace, and all the mobs are close to the warriors. if they bounce off, beckon solves the problem. The clear time ends up being the same. Secondly when warriors reach about 63-72 armor, the damage taken is negligible. Only bosses and trolls can really hurt the warriors enough for pots, but with iron blood and evasion, as well as super mega slash (or a war hammer) to stun lock the mobs, warrior groups go through very very few potions. So while the two classes don't mesh well together, separately they clear at about the same speed. Also there are several techniques for put out huge burst damage with warriors, so that together, even just 2-3 warriors can take down the highest level bosses in literally seconds.

Both classes are excellent, but unfortunately they do not work well together as dpsers. When one warrior simply decides to be crowd control the pairing works, but then again the archers don't really need it if there are more than 2 in a party.
I think archers are better at dps because
1 ranged attacks mean no walking between targets. So you can easily kill everything with minimal time wastage walking to archers, mages, or even chests.

2 Blastshot is a ranged AoE, and does not knock monsters around. 2 blastshots is usually enough to kill most monsters.
