3rd level for Ranger 2?


Advice

Grand Lodge

In my first PF game, My half-orc ranger just reached level 3 and I'm considering dipping in another class, but I'm kind of split 3 ways.
right now he's 18 STR, 18 dex, 11 con 13 int 15 wis 10 cha (rolled stats)
his first two feats are
1. Quick Draw
2b. Rapid Shot.

I've been playing him as a switch hitter

I could go Fighter 1 and pick up 2 feats. PBS and precise shot, if I want to focus on archery or Power Attack and ??? for melee.

Or

Divine Hunter Paladin 1 would give me precise shot, Power attack and...
Would I still get to ignore DR with smite, even though I don't get a bonus.

Or

Ranger 3 favored terrain (infiltrator maybe?) and get bond and spells sooner.

Which way should I go? Anything else I should consider? Was considring monk, but I don't want to lose the BAB.


Just stay ranger? Fighter would be a good dip for more feats.

Also, keep in mind for bond: Unless your doing the ally bond, get Boon Companion.

Well Fighter nets me 2 feats

Divine Hunter Ranger Paladin nets me two feats, + to will save, detect evil, and possibly smite.

Ranger nets me two feats, but one of them is endurance, my first infiltrator power, and one level closer to companion and spells.

So, Fighter's right out.

Divine Hunter dip or stay Ranger?


You should take Power Attack with Quick Draw and Rapid Shot to enable switch-hitting.

The Paladin dip gives lots of goodies and Heavy Armor Proficiency (for that Mithral Plate Mail down the road), but is this character Lawful Good and ready for a Code of Conduct? Which god would he follow? The answer to these questions should tell you whether to dip or not.

Yes, your Smite Evil bypasses evil DR even with a Cha 10.

cheers
