We're allowed up to 3 LA (as that would be bought off already) so I could take Divine Minion no problem. It may require reflavoring to fit the setting, but that's just fine.
Thanks for the link to the Planar Shepherd Handbook, I'll be sure to read that.
So I'm not sure that Prestige Ranger is worthwhile. It'd be nice to have 18th level Wizard spellcasting, sure, but is it worth two caster levels and at least two (Three if I take Two Weapon Fighting, since I don't do precision damage, but if I do archery Point Blank Shot and Rapidshot seem like no brainers so they don't count) less than excellent feats? Especially since I could get it, though not all the time, with Draconic Wild Shape and possibly from some of the outsider forms I get from PS.
Edit: Oh, and if I use ACFs, which should I go for? If I could get Wildshape to count as a prerequisite for Prestige Ranger (instead of Rapidshot or Two Weapon Fighting) would that be worthwhile? And what base races should I look at?
Further Edit: Oh, and should Divine Minion stack with Druid for purposes of Wildshape? I mean, they're roughly the same thing, but from different sources, so what are your thoughts on that?
