I have a Fighter arch type "archer" i need some good ideas for killing demons?
Again im not a paladin and i have some cold iron arrows as well a holy bow. Im lvl 11 and all my feats so far are used with archery. So i was curious if there are any better feats/equipment/traits that would help her kill demons

There's the Demon hunter combat feat, it gives a +2 on attack rolls, knowledge checks and caster level checks to over come spell resistance vs demons. There's also the feat Demonic nemesis that lets you chose a demon lord, when fighting followers of that lord (Demons, cultists ect) you gain a +2 on damage rolls and to confirm crits. And last there's the Demon slayer trait that gives you another +2 Damage vs demons, evil fey and plants/animals corrupted by evil.
I think worshippers of Asmodeus get some bonuses in a religion trait. (Edit: Balancer got it down)
Is this worth becoming a Knight of the Low Templar? Seems thematically appropriate. Your GM might let you retrain stuff to meet the requirements. Just a note, if you grab a cohort to use as a mount some of the features aren't as useless.
Pick up the appropriate arrows I suppose. Are you good? That opens up Holy Weapons. Are you lawful? That opens up axiomatic weapons.
She is a good alingment not like lawful good... i think chaotic good as she dosnt kill the innocnet and will help the poor but wont hesitate to kill if her life is threatened.
As far as joining/whorshiping a god for religion because she is apart of a certian family (DM made for story) she has to follow there god but i cant remeber what one :(
Thank you tho for the advice
Cluster Shot.
The single most important feat for an archer facing demons.
I support bane arrows, get a few for assorted high danger enemies, say 4 or 5 of a couple types.

Cold iron arrows and a holy bow is pretty much all you need. The only other ways to do better is to get evil outsider bane added to you bow or get evil outsider bane arrows. Other than that multiclassing into ranger to get evil outsiders as a favored enemy or paladin levels if you have a decent cha. If you have a decent wis and don't need heavy armor, levels of zen archer monk can pump out damage by flurrying with the bow. It seems like you don't need clustered shots to get through demon dr, but you might need it for other things like constructs and devils.

It's not that you need Clustered Shots specifically for demons. It's that most archers are already going to have the feat as soon as available.
The only things an archer might want specifically for demons is the bane (evil outsider) property and axiomatic/holy. There's not much in the way of feats that an archer is going to take for a specific target.
IIRC one of the Hellknight obedience options is effectively a variable favored enemy. Think it's from the Order of the Nail, but I don't have my books with me at the moment.
Believe it's the second boon, though it may be the first. Doesn't appear to be on Archives or the SRD though.
