I have a lvl 8 hunter with a tiger companion. I wanted to make it more of a ranged attacker but I'm having problems with some feats.
I am thinking on using Pack flanking to get the benefit of Coordinated shot and/or Enfilading fire. Though my GM says no due to the rule of flank only applies for melee attacks, but here's my argument.
The benefit of Pack flanking says:
When you and your companion creature have this feat, your companion creature is adjacent to you or sharing your square, and you both threaten the same opponent, you are both considered to be flanking that opponent, regardless of your actual positioning.
Both enfilading fire and coordinated shot require to have an ally (my companion) threatening and flanking an opponent.
So, if my companion is by my side and both of us ARE NOT in melee with an opponent but ready to attack it, can I get the benefit of the feat to do a ranged attack with either Coordinated shot/Enfilading fire (or both at the same time, if I had them)?
My take on "threatening" is: If I am facing and ready to attack an opponent, then I am threatening it.
Please help me clarify this, as if this doesn't work as I am suggesting here, then my Hunter is definitely not good for ranged attacks, nor melee due to my stats.
