At 4th level do I want a Greatbow, Expertise and Weapon Focus so I do the most damage myself, or do I want to stick with the longbow and grab Harrowing Swarm Student, Expertise and Inspiring Shot, for example. In the first I average a couple more points of damage with Paint The Bulls Eye but in the second I give the target a -2 to hit, the damage boost to others is the same and my Ispring Words heal four extra HP.  With the first I could use Risky Shot more, but then I'm more like a wannabe striker with a couple of mediocre heals. Is that really what a Warlord is?</blockquote>
