Good PrC for a Ranger?

[Horrendos]

Hiho,

i was planing my new Ranger and have looked for some PrC but i had to recognize that there aren't any PrC that really fits for my Char.

Which PrC would you think is the best choice?

Some Infos to my char:

Race: Human
Feats: Range-Combat and TWF
Skills: Scout(ing) (Hide, Move Silently)
Attr: Str(15), Dex(18), Con(15), Wis(13), Int(10), Cha(8)

If u need further inform. please post.

Before you go off and starting asking about PrC, you should ask your DM a few questions first!

1) Are you even allowed to play PrC's?
2) What PrC's are avalible in the Campaign?
3) What are the campaign requirments to join that particular PrC?(above and beyond the core requirment for the PrC)

4) Why and the heck do you want a PrC in the first place. PrC's should be something your character has to want to aspire to and are a story mechanic. They are not Power-ups!

If you are playing in a Munckin/Powergamer Campaign ignore the above and check out the DeepWood Sniper!

go the Epic Level Ranger route.

You haven't provided any information about the motivation or aspirations of your character, so it makes it difficult to give any suggestions. He could easily become a horizonwalker or shadowdancer, he could become an assassin, he could multiclass with a wide range of other classes...

Evil Eli has the right of it though. It is your DM that you have to talk to about prestige classes (that's why the're in the DMG rather than the PH!)

Cheers

If you could multi-class at least one level of Barbarian (for the rage ability), I'd suggest the Bunny Tamer prestige class. The "gleeful thumping" ability and "snack on daisies" abilities at 3rd and 5th level, respectively, truly complement the TWF path you've chosen already.

My DM allows PrC if they come from a official Source. (WotC Books) He think that this are the most balanced PrC.

I am searching for a PrC which not have to be a "POWERUP" or something. In the most cases this is a powerup.I like to play a character which has lot of opportunities. A Barbarian for Example would be char i wouldn't like to play because he is too much focused on the Battle.

Wow, that isnt a bunch of Weak-PC snobbery . "22 point-buy? Munchkin! We use all tens. can't have them PCs going munchkin on us!"

Ranger based PrCs, and the WoTC books they come from...

Darkwood Stalker - Complete Warrior's Handbook
Order of the Bow Initiate - Sword and Fist, Complete Warrior's Handbook
Deepwood Sniper - Masters of the Wild
Peerless Archer - Silver Marches (Forgotten Realms)
Stalker of Tashid - Book of Exalted Deeds
Master of the Yuirwood - Unapproachable East (Forgotten Realms)

Opportunities can mean a lot of things. I suggest a PrC called "ranger": seriously. It's got really cool non-combat stuff, and it's pretty narrow so it qualifies as a PrC.
