Barbarian Rage doesn't fully apply to ranged weapons

When using a ranged weapon, and activating Standard Rage, there is no bonus damage added to the attacks.
  • Doesn't show up on the character sheet
  • Damage reported in combat log is too low
However, if switching to unarmed or a melee weapon, raging, and then equipping a ranged weapon the bonus damage does apply.
  • Bonus damage shows up on the character sheet
  • Damage reported in combat log is low now appropriate
I have only tested this with throwing axes, so it might only be an issue for these. However it should be easy enough to test for other ranged weapons too.

While not a big issue, it does negatively impact gameplay. Especially if already in combat when wanting to use Standard Rage. Several attacks will be lost this way during the switch from ranged to melee, and back.
