Adintory's Archer (Chekov remake) (3.5e Class)
From D&D Wiki
Archer[edit]
From the woods to the desert, from mountains to cities archers abound everywhere, but few are truly worthy of the title. The archer can shoot an apple at 100 yards and hit every time, he can shoot an arrow through his own arrow after hitting the bull's eye at 50 yards, and he can shoot a pixie in the eye at 10. No one is better when it comes to the mastery of bows.
Making a Archer[edit]
The strong point of the archer is archery. Ranged combat. Letting enemies get too close is a mistake.
Abilities: Dexterity is important for most of the archer's skills, and it also decides how easy it is for them to hit targets. Strength increases some of the damage dealt, but isn't too important. Constitution increases hit points, and intelligence helps with their ability to get critical hits, and with their skill points.
Races: Elves are famous for archery, but that really doesn't mean that they are the best. Archers come from all races.
Alignment: Archers can be of any alignment. Archers from military backgrounds are usually lawful, while ones from small villages or the woods are usually neutral.
Starting Gold: 6d4×10 gp (150 gp).
Starting Age: "Simple" or "As rogue".

Class Features[edit]
Archers shoot bows. All of the following are class features of the Archer.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Archers are proficient with all simple weapons, all projectile and thrown weapons, and one martial weapon chosen at first level. They are proficient with light armor and medium armor.
Bonus Feat: At first, and every even numbered level, the archer gains a bonus feat from the list of fighter bonus feats. He must meet all prerequisites for the feat as normal.
Snipe: Provided he is using a ranged weapon, an archer can declare they are going to snipe on their turn, snipe adds a d4 at level 1, and increases every odd numbered level to 1d6 at 3rd (1d8 at 5th etc) to your attack roll or your damage. Snipe is accessible at first level being used at most 3 times in one day. An archer can use as many of his snipes in one turn as they want, adding to damage and accuracy if they prefer, but they must declare how many they are using before they roll. To successfully snipe you must make a concentration dc of your opponents AC+3
Fast Movement (Ex):An archer's land speed is faster than the norm for his race by +10 feet. This benefit applies only when he is wearing no armor, light armor, or medium armor and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the archer’s speed because of any load carried or armor worn.
Shoot for the head: At 5th level, provided an archer is using any longbow their threat range is increased by 1, instead of being 20 they now threaten on a 19-20, but when rolling to confirm a critical they cannot add a snipe bonus.
Focus (Ex): As a full round action, an archer can make a Concentration check with a DC of 16. If he succeeds, he recovers a snipe
Defensive Archery (Ex): From 5th level onwards, an archer can always take 10 on his Concentration checks, even if he would normally be unable to do so. At 9th level this also applies to Tumble checks.
Fire (Ex): From 7th level onwards, whenever the archer uses his Hold ability, the attack is automatically a critical hit. This ability only works if the target of the attack is within 30 feet of the archer.
Form Ranks: From 11th level onwards, whenever an archer attacks, with a ranged weapon, from a square adjacent to an ally, he and his allies gain a +2 bonus to Concentration and Tumble checks for a number of rounds equal to the archer's dexterity modfier.
Fire At Will (Ex): Beginning at 13th level, the archer can sacrifice a snipe to make another attack, this can be done as many times as they want.
Stand Firm (Ex): Beginning at 17th level, the archer can use his bow without provoking attacks of opportunity, and he threatens every square within 15 feet of him, provided he is using a ranged weapon.
Heroic Rapid Fire (Ex): From 19th level onwards, the archer can make an a full attack action and a move action in the same round without any penalties, and he can apply his Snipe ability, provided he is using a ranged weapon.
Epic Focus (Ex): At 20th level, an archer can recover any amount of Snipe as a free action by passing as many dc 15 concentration checks as they can, failing one ends this ability for the turn. The archer also now applies all of his snipes bonuses while only using 1.
