It sure as heck isn't Brigand. (Mage\Paladin\Ranger)
Don't anybody ever use Ranger in anything if you can help it, its a waste. All the skills you learn as a ranger i picked up in pally, and others aren't even useful anymore. If you want nature complex, get a druid instead, at least they get body.

Ill leave most of it up to opinion but mage/ranger/paladin is def. not one of the worst classes..very do-able imo. And for the rest i have a comment on enchanter: rosethorn maxes at 8 fecs, an elf ranger can do that, and ironwood...well ive found some strange stuff out about ironwood that sort of puts me in the middle about whether or not you can fec it (nonweapons)..but aside from that id rather pick the psionicist for a better spell mastery. Not to mention the bard would be for you to help someone else enchant, because as soon as you try to cast, the affect goes away.

The enchanter classes were primarily just speculation on part of druid, being that I do not personally use wooden equipment. Also, does the affect go away now or do you just stop playing? If it's the latter, that's easy enough to even do manually.

just a short note about ironwood

Fecs can increase the dam red of the armor by quite a lot..helps a lot when you can fill it with surps too :)

with weapons..it raises the max crit of the weapon, but lowers the damage of it.

No the affect goes away...
I had the feeling while using ironwood that it became just a standard type of wood that had specified levels of damage and damred, etc. like all the other woods. If you show me two items of the same level + ironwood and theyre different, then ill def. step back to the belief i myself had for a long time (that fecs work). I cant remember what my own conclusions were exactly. Gotta write this damn stuff down :P
