[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7027345, member: 12731"] Sure, but not everything from UA will be in the fall expansion book, surely? No word on revised rangers since back when...? Or perhaps more to the point, no tweets? I mean: essentially you're saying there is no info and all we can do is hope that the expansion book has a theme that doesn't exclude revised rangers? --- That said, I certainly hope WotC won't settle for merely being "largely compatible". I happen to believe we deserve full 100% seamless compatability. If the ranger is revised, and it calls its subclasses "conclaves", I expect any ranger subclass (published at the same time and later) to be called a conclave, and to be fully compatible with the revised ranger. Unless I'm incorrect, there are no official ranger subclasses outside of the PHB. This way it's easy to bring the "class tree" up to speed - merely include the three replacement conclaves along with conclave versions of the UA trio (assuming any of them survive the selection process). Anyone wanting to play the PHB ranger can still do that, sure, but hopefully it will only be passively maintained - hopefully they will realize the wisdom in only keeping one actively maintained version going forward! And hopefully they will some day succumb to temptation and turn the revised ranger into a precedent; so we can have a revised sorcerer (much more theme in return for no exclusive lock on metamagic) and a revised fighter (splitting up battlemaster into several subclasses, freeing up the maneuver subsystem for general martial usage) to look forward to too! :) [/QUOTE]
