What terrain and favoured enemy to pick for ranger?

What would your guys suggest taking first for the ranger?

Personally I thought magical beasts, probably fey is a must, most of the humans aren't too hard to take down, but they are numerous, and obviously all lot of beasts.

What about terrain, first world and then I find it hard to distinguish between some of the terrain sometime as well. Where do you think the hardest areas are?

So I've always found pathfinder confusing with magical beasts, giant humanoids and the other semi humanoid beast one.

This is probably the first D&D game where Undead wouldn't be my first choice. I took Humans on my freebooter since that made the most sense RP-wise.

But from a purely mechanical standpoint after playing the game a bit, I'd go with Magical Beasts. Owlbears are literally the worst thing I have to deal with. And this is the first D&D game I played where they showed up with alarming frequency.

Giant Humanoids is especially good during the Troll chapter. But you have Ekun to handle that.

Yeah I think you're spot on so far.. Owl bears are pretty common bad asses, and I guess the environment you fight most of them in as well

after magical beasts I got Fey

I would go fey - magical beasts - undead. Humans are also a good option, because there are many and some can be tougher than others, like Armag.
I pick up and nurture fey only for the last chapter, when it is good to have a strong advantage against the fey hordes. Until then it is useful mostly against the bald hill nameds.
Magical beasts are also numerous and occur throughout the game. There are few bosses among them, but they are typically strong, like our beloved owlbears.
There are quite a few undead, some of them are bosses. I remind you of the dwarven ghost in Pitax, the lich in the barrow, and several high level energy-drainers. The spectre horde in the House on the Edge of Time is also nasty, and not the only group of leveldrainers.

Terrainwise I'd pick First World and underground, if available - there should be something to cover dungeons. Otherwise nothing is overly prevalent. Picking up urban might be useful, because you have one fight in your city, and I really have no idea as what the final area counts...might be First World, might be urban.
