So I am about to make my fourth ranger (yes, I am very fun at parties :x I am just into very specific class fantasies, mmkay... ).

And I reeEEeeEEally wanna go for the "bounty hunter" trait - just from a roleplaying perspective (which obviously is fine and all) - but how, when and where do you actually use the their restraint bonus?

I mean... The only scenario I can think of when this could be even remotely useful is (early spoiler? I'll tag it anyways):

When you're trying to subdue some goblins for Wyll. But even then, it doesn't feel like it is necessary at all - because all you gotta do is basically bring down their HP to a certain point and they'll surrender. So....


Are there any examples from earlier BG games or DOS scenarios where you actually use any similar abilities? I cannot think of a single one in DOS2.

Will I ever be able to be a great edgy bounty hunter - or shall I keep being a very edgy hunter / animal handler instead? grin

Maybe I should try playing a thief... Does thieves make for good "edgy bounty hunter" class fantasy? *thinking emoji*

Rogues make the best bounty hunters. Especially now that you can just say "oh by the way non-lethal damage" instead of having to resort to bonking the enemy on the head for 50 damage with your sap in one turn before they notice you and murder you.
