Pathfinder 1E Ranger's Favored Enemy & Lycanthropes

koesherbacon

First Post
One of my players asked me which Favored Enemy he should select as a Level 4 Ranger who wants to specialize in hunting Lycanthropes.

I don't see Lycanthrope's on the list, so let me ask which one would be best to select:
  • Monstrous Humanoids
  • Humanoid (Other Subtype)
  • Magical Beast
  • Other

Thanks a lot, we both appreciate any advice you can share :)

Looking at the werewolf statblock, they're a "Medium humanoid (human, shapechanger)"
So, the two favoured enemies to pick are human, which applies to all humans. Or Shapechangers which applies to all lycanthropes AND all others with the shapechanger subtype.

So, have them take "Humanoid (Other Subtype: Shapechanger)"

Lycanthropes aren't magical beasts, monstrous humanoids, or "other" - at least per RAW. They're just people who shapechange into wolves - so shapechanger is probably what you want to select.

Hope this helps.
