My feeling is I'd take the bard, but that is because I don't like the way IWD II handles the ranger class all that much - you'd think they would make the best archers but the only fighting perks they get are free dual wielding feats. In this game fighters would make the best archers - although a ranger(x)/fighter(4) would be good to get WS in the long bow. But the extra fighter feats come in handy when you want things like improved critical, dirty fighting, rapid shot and precice shot to make your archer-type more effective. I think the bard class makes more RP sense to me and in this game and is more fun to play, but either way you'd be OK.

Well... I don't see how someone trained in tracking, stealth, and surviving in the wilderness would be better with a bow than someone that dedicated all of his life to it...
Rangers are scouts, not professional archers...
