05-20-07, 03:30 PM I'm playing a binder/Ranger in a Gestalt campaign right now and I was wondering if there were any good feats, PrC, variants, etc. for my human level 3 melee ranger to take. He uses two weapons, He has Improved toughness, Ignore special requirements and Improved binding. The DM allows us any material as long as it's not game breaking, but I only have the Races of... series, complete series (not including Complete Champion), BoED, BoVD, Planar handbook, Manual of the planes, Master of the wild, Tome and Blood, Song and Silence, Defender of the Faith, Sword and Fist, Savage Species and the PHBII.
I was thinking on taking the spellless variant from CW, or instead of that perhaps taking levels on Night Song Enforcer.

I would switch Str and Con. With your middling HD and half-focus on being casteresque, you're going to be better served staying out of melee. Also, Rangers have several nice archery spells that behoove you to go the archery route.

I might even go so far as to say you should put the 10 in Str and the 12 in Int.
