Notes: Level changes occur after a save has gone up.  BAB stacks. Ability scores are complementary to both classes.  Option to put stat bonuses into strength instead of dexterity, allowing improved two handed fighting.  Possibly additional feat available, because (I have not had a chance to confirm) rapid shot is granted feat for ranger at level 2.

Editor's Note: This build is based off the wealth of existing information from the pen-and-paper Dungeons & Dragons, as well as some known information from DDO. We offer it as an example, with the understanding that some of the information found here may not apply to DDO at release.
