[QUOTE="Kat', post: 4327385, member: 55972"] Actually Ranger 16 / Scout 4 grants you a bonus feat and 1 extra point of base Reflex save, in exchange for HiPS. It's worth a try, I'd say. Why not simply go spellcaster then? You got a BAB of +10 with this build, crappy skill points, hit points, and saves... wow, impressive for an archer. Thaumaturgist requires Spell focus (Conj.) AA requiers Weapon Focus, Point Blank Shot, and Precise Shot Archmage requires another Spell Focus, and Skill Mastery (Spellcraft) Meaning you only got your 18th level feat slot left to actually start taking useful feats... compared to a Ftr/Ranger/Scout this kinda sucks. My suggestion for an archer is Ftr 4/Scout 3/Rgr 13. The reason you take Ftr 4 and thus sacrifice 1d6 worth of Skirmish is Weapon Specialization, which gives you access to Ranged Weapon Mastery. Both feats together mean +2 to hit and +4 to damage, IMO beating the extra 1d6 skirmish. [/QUOTE]
