Ok, so I know that this character is going to be anything but optimized, but I am trying to do what I can. I have the following setup (note that I don't have all my abilities referenced, but I can get them once I get home, if needed):
Wood Elf Ranger 5/DeepWood Sniper 2/Ranger +5
I have convinced my DM to let me have an Energy Bow (as per the D&D cartoon) as an Item Familiar, and to allow me to take a Belt of Battle. I don't have the money to add Splitting yet, but I will be as soon as I can reasonably afford it.
At this point, I'm somewhat torn on where to go with the character. I have two options that I see before me:
1. Drop the last level of Ranger (3rd favored enemy? Not really necessary) and reallocate some skills (the character hasn't really been played yet) to pick up the Knowledge (Geography) for Horizon walker, which I would take for six levels (hills, plains, marsh, underground, forest, shifting), and then possibly go back to ranger for the last few levels (mostly for the extra casting).
2. (possibly) Drop the last level of Ranger and instead pick up Psychic Warrior. This would give me extra feats, which would be helpful, but from what I have seen of the abilities it would give me, may not be all that useful beyond the fact that it's a full BAB class.
I have a strength of 16, dex of 18 or 20, wis of 16, int of 14 (I think), con of 14, and cha of 12 (I think). We had a 36 point buy for the stats and if we have +1 or higher in all our stats, we get a homebrew feat called Legendary which gives a stat boost at third level and every three levels thereafter (in addition to the regular stat boosts at every 4th level).
I'm pretty sure there's something better I can do with this character, I just can't see it. As a note, this is in Eberron, in case that is helpful.
