Searching Ranger/Druid, Ranger/Cleric or similiar build.

[Arrow]

Hi!
I've recently started playing on the server again (yesterday) and through the help of these forums picked up an awesome Gish build that I'm currently playing. However, I'd also be interested in something that can heal/support the party a bit more and use ranged weapons because I didn't want to go for the Melee Cleric route and such.

This means that I'm searching for some ideas to build a ranged character that can heal - looking at stats and classes some kind of Ranger/Druid with Hierophant in it seemed to be pretty awesome for that, though I have no idea if I then have sufficient ranged attack power left over.

Any suggestions welcome - if you're awesome enough to even include a build that I can take a look at for feats and such that would be even better. Thanks in advance!

Human Cleric/HarperPriest/Cleric/Hierophant - http://nwn2db.com/build/?279967

Hierophant feats - Spellpower I, II and III, Animal Companion

Harper Cleric Blessings
- Selûne's Radiance: Turn Undead Progression
- Lurue's voice: Animal Companion Progression
Any 3 of your choice

Resist Poison = Brutal throw.

Needs a +4Wisdom Item ( amulet from Avernus )

Result: A CL28 cleric with a fully progressed epic animal companion, archery feats + brutal throw for throwing axes using STR for AB and damage, on top of the typical benefits of a weapon and shield cleric, with 21 levels of Turn Undead. Instead of blindfight, one should consider Northlander Hewing.

One of my favorite builds. Unfortunately the Cleric animal domain, still results with a low AB animal companion due to the lack of pet buffing spells, even though you get all the available feats

Sorry to jump in.

- Animal companion progression is pickable as Hierophant bonus feat?
- Northlander Hewing can be used with all ranged weapon, just throwing weapons or with non Ranged weapons? Thought i ve read in some past update it´s disabled for ranged weapons.

No entry on the wiki on those things. I will update the wiki if you can give an answer.

Thanks!

It cant be used with ranged weapons. Only in melee and will get disabled when casting spells so you need to reactivate it.

Would shifting arround some of the STR to WIS and picking up Zen Archery for using a bow be a good idea with this?

Style wise I'm just not too sold on using throwing weapons.
