[QUOTE="The Souljourner, post: 2697547, member: 1622"] I'd definitely go human, the feat and skillpoints are too critical to miss. I'd also definitely take rogue at 1st, too many skillpoints to miss. Don't take monk. The loss of a BAB will hurt, and you don't really gain much that works with the theme (the hand to hand attacks is about it, which can be simulated with spiked gauntlets). You might consider taking the two weapon fighting path with the ranger and taking the bow chain with your normal feats. The TWF feats take a huge amount of dex normally, whereas rapid shot does not.... that only applies if you plan on getting up to 6th level in ranger, though. I wouldn't bother if you're not planning on doing that much, since TWF is vastly inferior to rapid shot as a one-off feat. Really, I think as long as you play the character as a SEAL type, whatever you do will work out fine. I think three levels of rogue and five of ranger are essential. Maybe rogue 9/ranger 11 by 20th. That gives you combat style mastery, 3 favored enemies, and 5d6 sneak attack. -The Souljourner [/QUOTE]
