Heya!

This is my first 4th edition character that i have made, could be some mistakes in the build, and i'm seeking advice and help to make him better.
I can't use any Dragon Magazine stuff. He is a STR/DEX Stormwarden Ranger, Pit Fighter was another option i was contemplating but decided that i wanted a STR/DEX build. He is our partys scout with Stealth and a background that adds +2 to Thievery. Our party is : Paladin, Shaman, Sorcerer, Psion and Ranger.

For feats i was also thinking of these: Lasting Frost + Wintertouched, Man-At-Arms, Blade Opportunist, Hunter's Advantage, Brutal Accuracy, Elven Precision, Defensive Advantage, Heavy Blade Opportunity, Triumphant Attack, Epic Resurgence and Two-Weapon Flurry. I'm not quite sure about the feats that would optimize my character and which order to take them. Same goes with powers.


Thank you in advance of your help and advice!

Tac Warpriest > Kensei IMO

And I don't really like Ultimate Confrontation. It sounds nice in theory, but if you're gonna nova a target, there are better options.
