Acaidan: I was thinking of Boo as well! Hamsters and rangers everywhere! Rejoice!
haute ecole rider: Valfar looks creepy. Like an Aryan Brotherhood enforcer.
I prefer a nice, friendly
zombie insteadI have not tried a Ranger yet. But from what I read they seem to be a viable class, unlike Dragon Age, where they nerfed archery. I hear that with version 2.0 of the game, they fixed some issues with the animal companions not leveling up, so now they are a lot more potent.
