Thanks
Pnin is going to take Draconic lessons, unless someone else would like to do that.
Does anyone else speak it already?
If anyone has a better idea for the last skill point, let me know. I covered all of my "specialities."
Can anyone recommend a good definitive guide on leveling up a ranger? Any help would be appreciated.....the curse of ADHD....

Specific Ranger Recommendations from someone online:
I played a Ranger a long time ago and found the Switch Hitter was very powerful.
Rules and feats/traits/etc. are better now so not sure if you want to go that route.
Gartangor the Ranger was fun to play.
Idril
Was kinda going awitch hitter route
Composite bow then wade into melee with greatsword....
Thank you Pnin!! Much appreciate the guidance
Sanreal
Up to you because you probably can make it better. This is old school stuff.
Included given ranger feats this is the order I used.
Power attack
Rapid shot
Endurance (class)
Toughness
QuickDraw (got schooled by GM on how that actually works)
Manyshot
Vital Strike
Evasion (I think class)
Improved Critical
Gartangor 9th level Ranger
***You seem to be a strict melee guy right now. Can't stay away from the fight.***
Hope it can work for you.
Idril.....thanks....very helpful info....love the setup
Ok
Trying to calculate my HP...realistically
So level 3 base HP should be 25
But how do i add in bonuses of 16 con with +2 Belt of Con...making it a total of 18 Con??
Not the expert, but I am pretty sure it's your Con modifier (which is +4) times your level (3) for a bonus of 12 HP.
On top of base 25 DM has given? 10 level 1, 5 level 2, 10 level 3? For a total of 37? I will go with that...if wrong I can change it....Thank you!
And if you took favored class bonus, that is either 1 HP or 1 skill point, so a max of 40.
That's how I've been doing it, and I'm pretty sure. But if i'm wrong someone else should say something before Sanrael and Pnin break the game.
+1Reflex
+1Fortitude
+8 HP
Spells added: Protection From Evil, Grease(favored class no HP point)
Skills: Bluff 8 Perception 7 Know Arcana 6
Spells per day 6/1st level
+1BAB
+1Fort
+11 HP
Spells added: (0)Spark, (1)Vanish
Spells per day 3/1st
Feat: Precise Shot
Well, if we are going to stand around flexing:
+1 BAB
+1 to Fort & Will (take that trog sickness)
+ 10 HP
Feat: Precise Shot
Language Draconic (maybe something else if we need it)
Sneak Attack = 2d6 now
Danger Sense = +1 bonus against traps
Thundercats HO!
Is everyone getting a feat? Thought that was every 4 levels.
Good question
I think it might depend on class
How about skill points??
Everyone gets a feat at odd levels. Skill points depend on class. Bonus feats depend on class.
Apparently you get a feat every odd level.
Need to look at what I need.
Any ideas for a third level Sorceress?Anyone...anyone?
Eldritch Heritage?
We just missed the perfect chance to take down the Paralictor! Curral casts CAUSE instead of cure and Pnin sneak attacks the Paralictor. We could have completely taken down our oppressors/slave masters! :D
Damn
Youre right
My intelligence is only 10....whats your excuse!!
We can redo the round if you’d like to give your plan a shot.
DM offering to redo the round is scarier than anything else we've done. Pnin is not up for Kiryl's extravaganza.
Lol
Im with Pnin
It may not have worked, but it would have been an epic tale to be sure....
TPKs usually are Kiryl.
Summon forth the celestial porpi!!!
I think only half the party died in that encounter.
Just giving my character a last once over...is there anything rose im missing?? Im not clear on feats...special bonuses for race..class...any help would be greatly appreciated

A ranger gains Endurance as a bonus feat at 3rd level.
At 3rd level, a ranger may select a type of terrain from Table: Ranger Favored Terrains. The ranger gains a +2 bonus on initiative checks and Knowledge (geography), Perception, Stealth, and Survival skill checks when he is in this terrain. A ranger traveling through his favored terrain normally leaves no trail and cannot be tracked (though he may leave a trail if he so chooses).
Cold (ice, glaciers, snow, and tundra)
Desert (sand and wastelands)
Forest (coniferous and deciduous)
Jungle
Mountain (including hills)
Plains
Planes (pick one, other than Material Plane)
Swamp
Underground (caves and dungeons)
Urban (buildings, streets, and sewers)
Water (above and below the surface)
Thank you very much....appreciated
GM: Not sure I understand Eldritch Heritage feat. Can Idril take it? Not sure about pros and cons. My reading is I cannot take it yet without skill focus. Is it worthwhile?
Idril: I forgot about the skill focus part :-(
When I ran a sorcerer, I found heritage helpful to pick up the arcane bloodline as well. Lots of useful spells in that bloodline, but too plain for character building? YMMV.
GM: Not sure I understand Eldritch Heritage feat. Can Idril take it? Not sure about pros and cons. My reading is I cannot take it yet without skill focus. Is it worthwhile?
Yes, you would need to take the associated skill focus. I'm not a huge fan of eldritch heritage because you probably need to invest 3-4 feats to get the best use out of it, but if you had a specific use in mind it might be fantastic.
GM: Not sure I understand Eldritch Heritage feat. Can Idril take it? Not sure about pros and cons. My reading is I cannot take it yet without skill focus. Is it worthwhile?
Good defensive feats would be Dodge or any of the 3 feats that improve your Saves.

Should I take Greater Fortitude +2 save or Dodge +1 AC?
I ask the mighty GM which would be better for this campaign.
Also ask everyone else for their input.
I vote for Dodge as you will use it with more frequency.
Your FORT at +4 is actually pretty dang good! Kyril is only +6 with a 16 CON and that being one of his primary saves.
yep yep!
If you're going to boost a save, I would boost Will rather than Fort, but agree that AC is likely to be used more often.
My original thought was Dodge. But thought that was wrong. Too many save problems. Wow...I was going the opposite direction. Sorcerer Will save is the best I can get in the class. (Unless GM knows better).
I choose Dodge.
In my opinion, will is the most important save, then fort, then reflex. More AC is always good.
@GM If I cast Elemental Ray into melee do I take a -4 penalty? Can I hit one of my friends? Just checking.
Yes -4, unless you take the feat that negates. If you rolled a 1 then hitting your companions is a possibility.
Anyone want to lay claim to the +1 ring of protection (2,000 GP)?
I will if no one else wants it.
Im sporting one already....and nicely in debt....all yours Curral
I'm interested, but not sure if I can afford it. Accountant Kiryl, where is your bounty calculation?
Also/Alternatively is there a better armor I should be investing in? The light armor list seems sparse to me? Is there a wand of Mage Armor?
