And the self-buffing changes the character quite a bit. Can you build a viable polearm paladin? Might be a better fit.I don't think this is as close as your polearm tripper. Buffing with Tenser's doesn't seem very similar to Cloud of Darkness + Flame Spiral + Action Point + Cyclonic Vortex + Drow ninjutsu to put them in a lock and stop them shifting out of the darkness next turn.  You've still lost the melee capabilities this PC (somewhat oddly) seems to have. Hmm. A theme emerges here about "magic making up for things".I missed the ranger spells. How is there healing and buffing?The "curse" (as we play it) is actually the +1 to hit for Quarry in conjunction with Battlefield Archer.Favoured enemy has its normal suck - but to me the ranger-cleric did seem the easiest to put together.I'm not sure I can entirely divorce, in my mind, realising a concept from realising it effectively (or at least viably), but your effort is appreciated!Though you're not really making me interested in giving 3E a second look! If this is 3E's selling point, give me 4e!</blockquote>
