Message: <blockquote data-quote="mcgeedis" data-source="post: 3692754" data-attributes="member: 41995">I have a buddy that said he wanted to build a ranged character for our current campaign.  He is current a third level human Ranger/Scout/Fighter.  His current ability scores are as follows:STR: 13DEX: 16CON: 15INT: 14WIS: 15CHA: 11His current feats are Dodge, Mobility, Track, Point Blank Shot, and Precise Shot.  Ever since this campaign started, all he has been doing has been whining about how his character stinks because ranged characters were just not meant to be good.  I think he may be getting discouraged because there are some really highpowered low level characters in our game right now (VoP druid, Swordsage/Warblade, Dwarven Barbarian for example).  There has got to be a way for him to become a better ranged weapon bow masterm right?  We are allowed all the "Complete" books as core, and PHB 2, as well as Frostburn.  Spell Compendium made the cut too.  We are allowed one feat, spell, magic item, class or prestge class every level as non core.  Also, we can accrue action points that we can turn in for feats, permanent ability score modifiers, and other miscellaneous odds and ends.  We are also allowed to trade in feats and retrain every level as outlined in the PHB2.Does anyone have any advice for my buddy?  He is generally a roleplay oriented player, but I think his lack of combat ability is bumming him out.  And not too mention, I have never seen a truly awesome ranged character!</blockquote>
