Favored Enemy question

[Blindz0r]

I'm just about to roll up an elven AA, so I was just wondering what favored enemies I should get. I know that evil outsider is a must since a large portion of endgame content is devils. what else?

Thanks in advance.

For end game I tend to choose things with DR, esp DR that can not be beaten.

Elementals, constructs, evil outsiders, undead, etc.

For starting a ranger, I tend to play the favored enemy feat swap game.

Start with undead, human, or monsterous humanoid.
Hit the harbor swap it to reptile.

Before hitting level five, swap it back to undead, and then normally I choose giant.
When done with giant hold, swap out giant for whatever you want that is your current end game. In my case with IQ, I swapped in human.

As pure ranger you get 5 FE. The most common (and therefore recommended) are:

- Undead
- Giant
- Construct
- Elemental
- Evil Outsider (a must)

Good solid suggestions. I typically will do undead (there's too many that just refuse to stay dead), Giant, Construct, Abberation, Evil Outsider.

The order I take mine is as follows:
1) Undead
5) Giant
10) Evil Outsiders
15) Constructs
20) Elementals

I second this, and suggest that a new player not try to "Swap" favored enemies as missing minds had suggested. It is a costly process or it uses up your one shot at a free feat respec (Always useful to keep that one un-used incase you accidentally screw up, or a new update end up adding something "To good to miss" or turns a previous feat into "To horrible to keep".)

The preferred order i see in most cases is 1) Undead, 5) Giant, 10) Evil Outsider, 15) Elemental, 20) Construct. The last 3 are a bit more variable, but i wouldn't put evil outsider later than 15.
