Message: <blockquote data-quote="Klaus" data-source="post: 5596278" data-attributes="member: 607">Archer Ranger vs. Hunter Ranger: as MrMyth said, the Archer is a striker, while the Hunter is a controller. The hunter's attacks deal debilitating conditions or target many opponents (with Rapid Shot you can hit up to 9 targets, whereas Twin Strike only gives you 2).Two-Weapon Ranger vs. Scout Ranger: the Scout, being Dex-based, will be equally competent in melee and in ranged combat, and his AC will likely be higher.The PH1 Rangers offer more room for customization, since you can mix-n-match powers from several books. The Essentials Rangers offer only a few options here and there. Also, since they use primal magic, the E-Rangers have utilities that feel more magical (but then again, even PH1 Rangers can pick them).</blockquote>
