the damage of dual shoot depends on the bow you use. If you use a medium range 20 short bow your dual shoot will do much more damage than with a fast range 25 bow.
well, to the range thing:
a hunter does not need the range...lower range also means your pet is nearer at you and has a short way to your enemy. Also many combat control spells like ambush are range 25...and many hunters cast ambush at the very beginning of a fight. Same with sudden strike, range 25 too.
and to compare tear apart and break apart...biggest disadvantage for break apart is the long casting time...you could have done 2 normal hits instead with a short bow...imagine your break apart is resisted...all the casting time is wasted. And it will last longer to cast it again than tear apart.
And you forget about mediation, a basic self buff for many people using short bow I think
As a hunter it is important to react fast, and that you can do only with a short bow.
