[QUOTE="grimslade, post: 5938626, member: 6061"] OMG All Rangers must take the emo drow theme and long lost emo king background! Wait... hang on... *pulls out Scroll of Reading Comprehension and reads it* Oh! Nevermind. Fighting styles as themes sounds great. Protector in the Wilderness is classic. Hunter. Tracker. Friends with Dire Crocs and fuzzies, of course. Sounds like a good guide to work from. Is there enough to warrant a full class? I think so. Animal companion will be class specific. Quarry/ Favored enema will be too. Maybe some surprise mechanic or terrain advantage. Themes should allow some good customization. Old school rangers even get the nod with the magic user theme. Armor is in way too much flux right now to make any decision about light only or adding plate. My feeling is light as default and heavy armor later on, at like Ranger Lord level. Themes might be able to speed it up. Urban Ranger is a rogue. Ranger is a wild class. Sorry, I am normally Mr. Inclusive but I don't know what an urban ranger brings different to the table. Is it just a favored terrain? Themes can make that better though. [/QUOTE]
