[QUOTE="Smeelbo, post: 4682778, member: 81898"] Ranger M/C is probably the best overall initial M/C feat, because it lets you get [U]any[/U] [I]Ranger[/I] skill, including [I]Perception[/I], and [I]Hunter's Quarry[/I] applies to any attack that damages. Thematicly, it goes well with the concept of being a [I]"scout,"[/I] and gives you access to [I]Nature[/I], if that skill is valuable to you.

[I]Backstabber[/I] is very good, as is [I]Nimble Blade.[/I] Depending on how strict your DM is regarding thrown weapons, you might need [I]Quick Draw[/I]. I tend to do my M/C at first level, because it is usually part of my character concept, even though this can be sub-optimal.
