Favored enemies?

[RS-Makk]

Hi

What favored enemies do you folks recommend be picked at the various levels?

[rpasell]

Giant, Undead, Evil Outsider

Elf and Dwarf too .

Start with Undead, then Giant, then Construct, then Evil Outsider.

Those are my preferences anyway.

[Myriam]

Mine are
Undead
Evil Outsider
Aberration
Construct
Giant

[valorik]

I prefer
Giant
Abberation
Undead
Elemental
Evil outsider

not in that order

[jakeelala]

giant should beswapped out after giant hold for aberration and the final list should be (at 20)

evil outsider
aberration
undead
elementals
constructs

evil outsider
aberration
undead
elementals
constructs

Say someone only had 18 levels of ranger (exploiter build). Which of those is least important? Elementals or undead? I know the other three are common in the current end game stuff.

[winsom]

1st: Reptiles, --> re-spec to Undead around 5th level, and consider re-specing again to Gnolls or Aberrations around 10th
5th: Giants or Goblins--> re-spec to Aberrations around 12th-13th if you don't have it yet
10th: Evil Outsiders
15th: Elementals or one of the previously chosen ones, not Goblins
20th: One of the previously chosen ones, not Goblins

Constructs is the waste of a favored enemy. I've never been even moderately-threatened by a construct and I've never needed to kill them any faster than I already can.
I would choose Ooze before construct because there are times I want to kill Living Spells as quickly as possible.

aberration isnt needed, there's not a major abberation in the game that you dps after tempest's spine..

Check again. Aberration is one of the most important enemies to have extra damage and saving throws against. Certainly a 3rd-best choice, tied with Giants.
