[QUOTE="On Puget Sound, post: 5517930, member: 68988"] I disagree with those who say a melee/ ranged mix is bad. Yes, you could squeeze one more point of dex by forgoing str or vice versa, but so what? There are easily enough powers, and one actual build, that reward mixing the two. Here is my attempt: ====== Created Using Wizards of the Coast D&D Character Builder ====== Mercurius's Ranger, level 11 Elf, Ranger, Sharpshooter Build: Hunter Ranger Fighting Style: Hunter Fighting Style Ranger: Prime Shot Background: Elf - Wild Elf (+2 to Athletics) FINAL ABILITY SCORES Str 20, Con 11, Dex 20, Int 9, Wis 16, Cha 11. STARTING ABILITY SCORES Str 17, Con 10, Dex 15, Int 8, Wis 13, Cha 10. AC: 25 Fort: 24 Reflex: 24 Will: 21 HP: 73 Surges: 6 Surge Value: 18 TRAINED SKILLS Nature +15, Stealth +14, Perception +15, Athletics +16, Acrobatics +15 UNTRAINED SKILLS Arcana +4, Bluff +5, Diplomacy +5, Dungeoneering +8, Endurance +4, Heal +8, History +4, Insight +8, Intimidate +5, Religion +4, Streetwise +5, Thievery +9 FEATS Level 1: Brutal Accuracy Level 2: Lethal Hunter Level 4: Manticore's Fury Level 6: Bow Expertise Level 8: Distant Advantage Level 10: Light Blade Expertise Level 11: Improved Defenses POWERS Ranger at-will 1: Twin Strike Ranger at-will 1: Fading Strike Ranger encounter 1: Evasive Strike Ranger daily 1: Skirmishing Stance Ranger utility 2: Oak Skin Ranger encounter 3: Disruptive Strike Ranger daily 5: Hunter's Confrontation Ranger utility 6: Step of Morning Mist Ranger encounter 7: Sweeping Whirlwind Ranger daily 9: Thousand Arrow Awareness Ranger utility 10: Defensive Volley ITEMS Paired Short sword +2, Duelist's Bow Longbow +3, Counterstrike Hide Armor +2, Amulet of Protection +3, Quickhit Braces (heroic tier), Acrobat Boots (heroic tier) ====== Copy to Clipboard and Press the Import Button on the Summary Tab ====== [/QUOTE]
