Favored Enemy: At 1st level, a ranger may select a type of creature as a favored enemy. Due to his extensive study of his foes and training in the proper techniques for combating them, the favored enemy bonus applies to ALL relevent checks against the chosen creature type. The bonus also applies to attack rolls versus the favored enemy. The bonus to damage is handled differently however. The first favored enemy bonus looks like this¡K +1/+1d6, at 5th level this bonus becomes +2/+2d6. A ranger also gets the attack and damage bonus with ranged weapons, but only against targets within 30 feet (the ranger cannot strike with deadly accuracy beyond that range). The bonus doesn't apply to damage against creatures that are immune to critical hits. Table: Ranger Favored Enemies :Aberrations Animals Beasts Constructs Dragons Elementals Fey Giants Humanoid type Magical beasts Oozes Organization (example: The Cult of the Dragon)Outsider type Plants Shapechangers Undead Vermin Rangers may not select "humanoid" or "outsider" as a favored enemy, but they may select a more narrowly defined type of humanoid or outsider. A ranger can only select his own race as a favored enemy if he is evil, or if his own race is encompassed by the chosen organization. Spells: Beginning at 4th level, a ranger gains the ability to cast a small number of divine spells. To cast a spell, the ranger must have a Wisdom score of at least 10 + the spell's level. Ranger bonus spells are based on Wisdom, and saving throws against these spells have a Difficulty Class of 10 + spell level + Wisdom modifier. A ranger chooses and casts spells just as a sorceror does. Through 3rd level, a ranger has no caster level. Starting at 4th level, a ranger's caster level is one-half his class level.
