i think this is ok advice on feats and stat adjustment would great and any other help you can give is much apreciated his backstory is his family killed by brigands and their small woodcutting village were burened to the ground he and his sister were the only two to survive away hunting. ( sister is in our party as well) (beastmaster ranger) they found a huntress gathering water and were taken in 5 years after the huntress tells her students that its time them too leave this place and find the road and travel and thats what they did and managed to make some friends on the way a brute of a half-orc barb a witty halfling bard and ingenius (if not slightly psychaotic ) alchemist. i want everyone honest opinions thanks everyone.


Opinion but think you will get better results from

With PB Shot, Rapid Shot, Deadly Aim. Putting +1 into Dex at 4th and picking up a cloak of protection or free will asap. The extra skill points and str bonus will probably payoff more with the lore warden archetype.


For the melee you can go slahsing grace feat chain or two hand an elven curved blade with power.

I like the slashing grace idea with Evan curved blade.

Switch hitter build slayer or ranger. Its more feat intensive than normal switch hitting tho.


i was thinking going archer fighter for bonus feats and using some feats for melee i was thinking legolas eqsue but more focused on ranged combat but im interested in slashing grace feat chain


As far as I know the Elven Curve Blade does not meet the requirements for Slashing Grace since it is not a one-handed weapon.

I'd suggest googling switch hitter builds and guides and seeing what pops up. :)


The otehr option is to take the Point blank master feat, so you can fight in range and inmelee with the bow.
