Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cephid" data-source="post: 4187492" data-attributes="member: 41015">Thanks for your help so far guys.I suppose I'm just frustrated with the lack of PrC's and feats for archers. (relative to melee/arcane/rogue/divine etc.)I'm trying to find ways of getting my damage up significantly, without being stuck 30' from enemies.I thought kensai might be good because all the enhancement abilities work at any range.Potential ideas:Fighter 2 (feats)Warblade 2 (ability to swap weapon focus/specialisation feats and some cool stance)Kensai (lots of dammage pumping abilities.)Kensai Weapon: Elven craft bow (can be used as a staff or Bow)The idea is I have weapon focus/specialisation/mastery for my bow which has lots of damage pumping enhancements.Other feats would be archery based.Pump heaps of arrows into enemy at range.For flexability: spend 1hr to change all my weapon focus type feats to staff (which has all the same damage pumping enhancements) and beat them up close range. I still threaten an area, so I can take AoO's too.Another Idea (which could be incorperated) is to be a half giant, take exotic weapon profficiency: great bow (1d10 or 2d8 as half giant.)use the Bo9S stance which lets weapons count as 1 size larger for a bow that does 3d8 base damage.Then take up the walls, and fell shot.Eventially, a fight starts:1st round: Run up wall to elevated position.Fire at enemy: Use fell shot and many shot to take a touch attack with several arrows, each doing 3d8 plus Kensai enhancements (and bane arrows for fun)2nd round: Stay in nice, hard to reach position and full attack from above. (maybe take crag top for +2 damage)So what do you think? Issues/potentials/suggestions?</blockquote>
