Eberron: Rising from the Last War introduces Dragonmarked races. These marked races have an expended spell list, along with some minor magical abilities. The races added are Dwarf: Warding Elf: Shadow Gnome: Scribing Half-elf: Detection, Storm Halfling: Healing, Hospitality Human, Half-orc...

Like many, I find the base chassis of the Ranger underwhelming. In my opinion, this is in large part due to the "Natural Explorer" ability only working in a specific favored terrain. If that terrain is not encountered, the Ranger really isn't any better at exploring than the rest in the party...

Do any of the available subclasses need a buff? If so, which ones? I've made a list of subclasses often depicted as underwhelming. Vote for those you think are actually underpowered. If you think I left out some weak subclasses, please tell me and I'll add them to the list.

Are some of the classes in 5e in need of a buff? If so, which one(s)?

I'm late joining a campaign that will go level 4 to about 9, and I was wondering how powerful the moon druid is at these levels. There is no doubt that the Moon druid is exceptional at level 2, but decreases steadily in power until level 10 (when they get a moderate boost with the elementals)...

I wonder how the new Perceptive feat compares with the old Observant feat. Both feats increases Wisdom by +1. Perceptive: -Grants proficiency in Perception, and expertise if already proficient in Perception. -No disadvantage to Perception checks in lighting obscured area. Observant - +5 bonus...
