Your next v3.5 ranger - 2weapons or bow?

Almost 23 years later, I think this thread is now in the wrong forum?

this is hilarious. Tells us how cool this game is (for some). But how's this the wrong forum?

Seems to be just an observation that there is now a forum specifically for older versions of D&D.

I voted "more than about the weapon choice." But my druthers as a player is for archery, if forced to choose. If I had a "two weapon combat" character conception, I'd want it to be a swashbuckler type, and a ranger based build for that would end up as a "ranger in name only" sort of character. Maybe an Urban Ranger from the UA rules, if the DM allowed that.

Now my preference as a GM and house-rule-writer is to get away from those baked-in class-feature choices. In my Brotherhood of Rangers game, the PCs are all OtherClass-Ranger gestalts, and I allow them to take bonus feats instead of combat styles, animal companions, or favored enemies.
