Hey Gang,
I'm toying around with the idea of a Crypt Ranger kit. It's an idea from the Complete Ranger's Handbook that was never (to my knowledge) fleshed out. Think of it as an Undead Hunter for Rangers.
I'd like to put something together that is new and not overpowered. So no Hold Undead at first level, for instance.
I'd also like it to have some power in BGEE and not have to wait until BG2EE for the kit to come into its own.
I'm open to ideas. Like I said, I don't want to just make a Ranger version of Undead Hunter.
Possibilities: Perhaps have an innate ability that's like Protection from Evil, but giving the attack penalty only to undead. Or, instead, perhaps an nerfed Bolt of Glory that does lower-level damage, again only to undead.
I'm wondering if--and how--I could restrict favored enemies at character creation to undead.
Oh, and I'm wondering more generally the damage from weapons like the Harrower or Azuredge stacks with the damage a Ranger or Undead Hunter deals.
Thoughts and suggestions are welcome.
