After playing each ranger kit for till cloakwood, I am left wondering, whats the point of the ranger class in BG?
Whats the point of having a scout character that cannot detect or disarm traps, you might as well roll a Fighter/Thief and have everything a ranger should be!! besides having +4 to a racial enemy, a ranger is just weaker fighter that really sucks, a fighter can get grandmastery in bows, wear heavy armor, dual class to thief, stealth, find and set traps.... leaving ranger with... a class that WAS an IDEA, but never fully realized.. It sounds cool on paper but it does not deliver.
