Hey all,
One of my players is interested in this prestige class, but the special requirement seems quite strict. I'm not sure there's any opportunities in the AP for the party to kill an evil creature with a CR 5 levels higher than the party's level, particularly with a ranger watching. I was considering adding something to the fight in Longshadow, but that could easily turn the tide of the battle and cause a TPK. Does anyone have alternate ideas for how the player could prove themselves to the rangers? How have other people ruled it? I don't think he would be very interested in going to do any sort of trial with the rangers, since the hobgoblin threat is looming large and the party feels the need to stop it, so the battle is probably the last decent chance he'll get.
