For items, you'll want a +2 Wounding Splitting Longbow, Item of Hide +20/Move Silently +20/Spot +20, a Belt of Battle, and some Dex gloves. Focus your skills on dragon lore and scouting, particularly stealth (which should be maxed out), and take the skill trick "Spot the Weak Point" pick up Swift Hunter, Knowledge Devotion, Improved Manyshot, Improved Skirmish, Far Shot, Improved Critical, and Darkstalker. Scout 3/Ranger 17 standard Swift Hunter build, with dragon favored enemy every time since level 1. Its ability to ignore part of cover or concealment needs some updating to 3.5, but if you can get Improved Precise Shot, it should combo to let you ignore even total concealment.įrom the top of my head, that's about all I can think of. Its ability to create magic ammunition might come in handy to make some slaying arrows. Also, you might be able to let your DM let it count as Power Attack, in which case you can get Favored Power Attack for even more damage. The ability to do Power Shots is hard to come by outside of Hank's Energy bow, which competes with Bane Weapons. PrC wise, I personally recommend Peerless Archer (Silver Marches).

Weapon wise, there is of course Mage-Bane and regular Dragon-bane. The boots of Sidestepping from Dungeonscape can let you immediate action move out of the way of line-shaped breath weapons and maybe get cover against cones. To Hit: 2 Ranger Arcanist+ 2 Paladin Dragon + 2 Spirit Pouch Dragon + 2 Spirit Pouch Arcanist + 1 Compentence Pouch + 5 Girlde of Hate Doubling of either one = + 14ĭamage: 2 Ranger Arcanist+ 2 Paladin Dragon + 2 Spirit Pouch Dragon + 2 Spirit Pouch Arcanist + 8 Hunting Weapon + 16 Girlde of Hate Doubling of either one = + 32įor general anti-dragon stuff, Dragondodger is a +1 ASA that gets you evasion against breath weapons. Paladin works, I believe and there is a Dragon Mag variant (Dragonslayer? Wyrmslayer) that allows you to multiclass between the two without restirction.Īdding all this together, with just one level of Ranger and ACF Paladin, you ought to be able to get the following: If you got the cash, a Gridle of Hate (Dragon Compendium) will double one of your bonuses.Īlso, rather than going ranger 5 for 2 favored enemies, I suggest multi-classing into one of the many full-bab classes that can get FE as an ACF.

An Enemy spirit pouch can add +2 to basic FE and an extra +1 Competence to hit (if you can swing it, get a pouch of Arcanists and stack a dragon-pouch on top via MIC item-stacking rules). armor spikes) will get you +4 damage, which ought to double to an effective +8. Use the Solitary Hunter ACF from Dragon Mag to get your FE bonus to hit. By the way its written, it should be able to stack with FE dragon, essentially doubling any FE boost you can get (provided the dragon is big enough to cast spells). The main thing is the Arcane Hunter ACF from Complete Mage. It's a good thing you're already thinking Ranger, because there is a lot of anti-dragon stuff you can do there.
