Sylvan Mystic

From Scratchpad

Do not be scared off by the penalties imposed by this Ranger kit. The Strength penalty can be negated by various Strength boosting items, the armour restriction is a minor annoyance and the weapon restriction is fairly irrelevant. What remains is a Ranger with the spellcasting ability of an Inquisitor, very low Weapon Speed (great for spell interruption) and 4 additional powerful spells. Even in BGTutu this class is useful, you can focus on archery while getting True Sight around the time you will need it.
