[QUOTE="Kisanji Arael, post: 2772111, member: 20056"] Okay, I think this is pretty strong and cancels out the paladin's natural aversion to ranged weapons. Start as an elf (for the +2 to Dex and for Skylord) and go through two levels of fighter. At third level, pick up one level of sorcerer and, for your feat, pick up ancestral relic (for bow of your choice). Go three or four levels of paladin, depending on whether you care about turn undead or not. From here, you will go into two prestige classes-- Anointed Knight and Skylord (both from BoED). In the former, the key abilities to hit are Anoint self (Unbroken flesh at 1st, Divine Clarity (wis) at 4th, and Inspired Strike at 7th) and Anoint Weapon (Unicorn's blood, wait until you hit 3rd) and Sentience. They expect you to take a martial feats, but you can exclusively take the ones that help you. There should be enough. In the latter.... take your first level in Skylord as soon as you possibly can. It gives youa flying mount and +2 to Fort and Reflex. The other levels are not nearly as important as this one. You won't have spells. I will say that. But you will be quite dangerous, especially since ancetral relic allows you to upgrade your primary weapon at every level. [/QUOTE]
