Archery ranger - are any of the archetypes worth it?


Advice


I plan to play an archery based ranger. Are any of the archetypes really good for this kind of ranger?

Most are, the question is this PFS, AP, or home game? Certain archetypes shine better in certain situations regardless of attack styles..


What level and what type of world/adventure genre is the game set in?


Home game. Level 1.


Infiltrator is amazing. You give up Favored Terrain (O well) and you can pick some very nice adaptations. These range from improved sight, feats, Natural Armor, ect.

Urban Ranger is also great if you dont have a rogue or another trapfinder. You also get Invisibility Trick which is just amazing for an archer.


I like the Guide archetype. It makes you a lot less dependant on your favourite enemy appearing for your combat prowess, and it makes it easier on the GM as well.
