Players also have the option of building their Ranger without choosing a subclass if they're multi-classing or building to a specific Prestige Class. The Ranger subclasses cover a wide range of possibilities. Several of the Tiefling Heritage options have bonuses for Dexterity or Wisdom, but not both together, and some have penalities to key Ability Scores as well, so choose wisely. The Ironsoul Heritage choice gives a Ranger a bonus to both Consitution and Wisdom, making it an ideal choice. A race known for its Dexterity bonuses, there's plenty for a ranger to work with here if they're putting a ranged build together. A great choice for any class and any Ranger build, players can add +2 to any ability score along with an extra Feat and Skill rank. A decent choice provided this isn't a melee build, as you get a +2 to Dexterity but a penalty to Strength.
Another good choice with a +2 to the Ability Score of your choice plus extra weapon proficiencies and racial skills like Orc Ferocity make this ideal for a melee build. There are several racial abilities that overlap nicely with a Ranger build, like Adaptability and Keen Senses, plus you can add +2 to any Ability Score. The +2 to Consitution is a nice start, and whether or not the Charisma bonus would be useful to a Ranger is entirely up to the player. The +2 to Dexterity is nice, but a Constitution penalty makes this a better ranged or spellcaster build. Bonuses to both Consitution and Wisdom make the Dwarf an excellent start provided the Charisma penalty won't be an issue.
This can work, with some Heritage choices offering a Dexterity bonus but choose carefully, as others have a penalty to Wisdom. Every choice also has an innate spellcasting ability, ideal for a Ranger with a spellcasting build. Many of the Assimar Heritage choices include bonuses to Dexterity and Wisdom, and the Plumekith actually has both.
