18 - str if going melee, dex if going ranged
15 - str/dex
13 - wis/con
12 - wis/con
12 - int
10 - cha ~ bump higher if you want to be more of an animal empathy kinda character, probably would want to raise int then too, and lower str, leave only dex/con/wis higher

09-24-05, 12:33 AM my race is an elf so does that help also with placing stats??? and what about the modifiers????
Jaxgaret
09-24-05, 12:45 AM well elves get +2 dex and -2 con, so you might want to think about going ranged. thus your final stats would be

15 str
20 dex
10 con
13 wis
12 int
10 cha

anything else?

09-24-05, 02:28 AM Modifier depends on which score you put in that stat. Subtract 10 from the score and divide by 2 and take the integer. (10 -11=+0, 12-13 = +1, 14-15=+2,...).

Skill points = (6 + INT modifier) x 4 for 1st level and an additional 6+INT modifier for each level after that.

HP= 1d8 + CON modifier. Most DMs give you max HP first level.

Languages: You get Common and Sylvan (or Underdark if playing a Drow) plus additional languages equal to your INT modifier for free. Each additional language takes the Speak Language skill and costs rangers 2 skill points each. Most Rangers learn Goblin and Orc languages, but that isn't required.

Other important skills Climb,Handle Animal, Heal, Hide, Knowledge (Dungeoneering), Knowledge (Nature), Listen, Move Silently, Ride, Spot, Survival, and Swim.

Feats: For bow users, Point Blank Shot is a must have. Class feats for 1st level are 1st Favored Enemy, Track, and Wild Empathy.

Starting gp is 6d4 x 10.
