Thinking about an Elf Cleric with the Multiclass-to-Ranger feat currently.
Since I would want Perception as a skill, anyways, to enhance one of the elven strengths, the 1st-level multiclass feat seems like a no-brainer, giving a strong encounter ability in addition to the trained skill. Also, elves automatically get proficiency with the bow, so that could be handy.
However, it seems like there is little to no synergy between Cleric and Ranger (Cleric powers don't work with bows; Cleric doesn't need Dex much; etc).
Feels a little restrictive in that combination.
What do you think... could it be worthwhile to follow this path?
Later on, the Ranger's Twin Strike power seems almost worth it to give up the Paragon path for it, doubling your attacks for the rounds where you do not use any of the higher grade abilities.
I would have to concentrate more on the spell-side of the Cleric then, naturally, and get some cross-over powers from the Ranger to enhance bow attacks, since spreading out between melee weapon, ranged weapon and spells wouldn't really work well, I suppose.
Thoughts?
Ideas on specific powers from these two classes, that would work well for that combination?
