hi, im looking a build for an archer specialist on damage, maybe based on a lot of arrows fireds. i roll this stats 18 17 15 13 13 12, and fire or wood elf as race, lvl 5 and all the books re allowed except the dragons magazines. Im using 2 lvls of ranger and 2 of fighter, but i dont know what way take, maybe swordsage, but i dont know what maneuvers or stances use; or wizard to go arcane archers.

i m checking the archery threads , but it only has builds based ond divine and arcane, i dont see any build of ToB or full martial.

Somebody can tell me what PrCs or builds re more damage dealers??

thnks

Swift hunter is better later. For now:
Wood Elf Fighter 4. PBS, Precise, rapidshot, weapon focus, weapon spec. 18 in dex, 17 in str. Level bump to str. With a masterwork composite longbow it looks like this:
+9/+9 1d8+7/3
PBS and magic not acounted for.

hmm, that build gives me low skills points and low reflex. How about a peerless archer build???

Swordsage don't get the weapon proff unless you are an Elf.

Cleric + DMM Persist + Divine Power = I don't need BAB.
Cleric + Zen Archery = I don't need Dex.
Cleric + Elf and Planning Domains = Free Extend Spell and Point Blank Shot feats.

Warblade Archer probably best embodies the 'shoot a billion arrows'-philosophy, but also while it tends to pick up the pace a bit slow, only getting the first actual offensive benefit - an extra attack - on level 9 (if straight classed) and truly only matures in the very end (around level 19, level 17 at earliest).

The Ultimate Archer Handbook really has all you need. Including a Warblade Archer-builds (that works off Fighter 2/Ranger 2-basis just fine).

If you want to... I'd do a Fighter4/Psychic Warrior 2 / PA / Justice of Weald and Woe. How many PA levels do you want? I'd say that after the power shot they aren't all that nice unless your DM allows you to flank with the ability that lets you threaten squares as with a reach weapon.

Power Shot is pretty terrible.

ranger 1/ psychic warrior 5/ slayer 9/ sanctified mind 5

or marksman 20 if you purchase "complete marksman" by dreamscar press. (I recently got this as a 4$ download and am very happy with the class).
