This old Ranger: Help save my Age of Worms PC

Well, I finally got up the nerve to complain about the +1 bow, the DM called me a whiner, and that's that. There went 6 good years and one bad one. :(

That's too bad.

Can you ask him something like, "My Ranger would like to go on a couple of quests to enhance his bow. What sorts of quests do you think he should go on?"

If you can't even do that, cast swift expeditious retreat and don't look back. :)

Head to the local gaming store and see if they have any different DMs in stock. Like they mentioned above, your being forced to play a very low powered character in a very high powered campaign. If the game isn't fun because the DM is being retarded. Just tell him that its not fun and take a break.

Otherwise, I'd see what options he has for completely switching characters. I would guess that he will impose a severe penalty for such an action if he allows it in the first place. Then pick something that can play more of a support role w/o important gear or w/o having to do anything to the enemies (because it sounds like you wouldn't be able to anyway).

Cleric, cast buff spells, etc, Wizard, same.

If you absolutly must stick with the ranger, stick your next level in Wizard and get 9th CL wands of Magic Missle.

Sorry to hear about your plight!

Next fight, stand there and do nothing. When asked why - explain that you either cant hit, or cany bypass DR. The other group maybers may put pressure on your DM and help you optimize your character a bit better.

Why doesn't your cleric align your bow and cast GMW on your arrows?
 

Can you not get the party spellcasters to enhance your weapons?

But you need to have a chat with the GM and say that you're not having fun because you're unable to contribute - don't make it you vs him. Point out that you're supposed to be a primary combatant, and aren't.

And do be prepared to walk away: not because he's a jerk or playing favourites but you're not having fun.
