Are there any Ranger PrC's that continue advancement of Favored Enemies?

I know of only one that allows progression of favored enemy (at a excellerated rate actually): Shadow Scout from O.A

They get it every 3rd level starting at first (1,4,7,10)
Requirements are easy for a ranger= non evil, track, run and 9 ranks in hide/move silent/spot.

They also get some neat other stuff, evasion, photographic memory, and smite favored enemy.

It is not Oriental Adventures specific, but it is in Oriental adventures.... I know A lot (most) people don't allow stuff from there.

Nope, nor are there any that I've seen that allow for the progression of spell ability. :(

There are quite a few PrC's that allow for progression of the Ranger's spell ability. Verdant Lord, Hospitaler, etc. Tamer of Beasts and some others allow for a staggered rate of progression as well.
 

The Shadow Scout sounds great. Any spell progression? Full Ranger BAB? Does their Favored Enemy Progression stack with the Rangers, meaning when you get your first Shadow Scout enemy all your Ranger FE bonuses go up by +1?

Rangers need to 11th level to even qualify for Verdant Lord, and Hospitler isn't very Ranger like. I know Tamer of beast gains +3 spell levels over 10 levels, but that is really the closest for a Ranger to get.

No spell progression, Full BAB, Favored Enemy stacks.
 

Sweet. I'll have to check out the OA. I want my 10th level Peerless Archer (10th level character/3rd level PA) to go Ranger the rest of the way but I'd like to take advantage of extra epic feats when he hits 21st so I'm looking for a good Ranger PrC. Something that will continue FE so I can have fun with Bane of Enemies and Death of Enemies. Ranger spells are cool, but if something had to give I'd lose those over the FE.

Would you mind giving me the gist of the flavor text for a Shadow Scout? What's their deal?
 

DotF has one for Demon/Devil hunters. You could probably make a template off of that one if you were looking to focus in one area. Other than that, just straight Ranger, that I know of.
 

"The camouflage of a tiger, the stamina of a horse, the eyes of an eagle: these are the ingredients of the shadow scouts, elite spies, trackers, and runners. Shadow scouts are trained to blend into their surroundings, to observe and remeber the smallest details about an opposing force, and to run like the wind to bring a report back alive."

They also get fast movmenet +10 and detect enemy (like detect evil but with favored enemy).
