Does Pathfinder have a feat to advance FE bonuses, something analogous to Shaping Focus or Boon Companion?

And if not, is there anything else that can advance FE, apart from more levels in ranger?

Not in a feat format.

There are prestige classes that increase your effective base class: Evangelist (https://aonprd.com/PrestigeClassesDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Evangelist), Mortal Usher (https://www.aonprd.com/PrestigeClassesDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Mortal%20Ushe r), and Chernasardo Warden (https://aonprd.com/PrestigeClassesDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Chernasardo%2 0Warden) immediately come to mind. Hinterlander (https://aonprd.com/PrestigeClassesDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Hinterlander) gives you favored enemy and functions just like the ranger ability, with bonuses.

Okay, thanks. Does Pathfinder have anything equivalent to the old enemy spirit pouch, in an equivalent price range? I'm aware of the Enmity Fetish, but that's priced impossibly out of reach for my needs. Is there anything more in line with the original spirit pouch?

If MIC is in, there's a Hunting weapon enchantment (+1 cost) that adds +4 to FE damage.

If Dragon Compendium is in, there's Girdle of Hate.

If you're up for Ranger/Druid, you could go for the feat Shapeshifting Hunter (https://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/shapeshifting-hunter/). There's also Dedicated Adversary (https://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/dedicated-adversary-combat/), which demands that you cannot have a favored enemy and basically gives you one with the base +2 bonuses in all but name for a specific kind of creature (e.g. hobgoblins, but not goblinoids).

Pathfinder has the ranger spell “instant enemy” that makes some type your best favored enemy for a bit.
