[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 9256843, member: 6704184"] Yeah I mean I like the later level ones, because Hide In Plain Sight is garbage, but like why not just describe the effect? I get it, it’s simpler to have spells, but the Ranger shouldn’t need a spell to read the land or the behavior of an animal. Yeah for sure. Being able to get more out BI is great. I sometimes feel like the one good part of the 3.5 bard gets thrown out with a lackluster class that requires multiple splats and decent system mastery to get up to the level of a fairly effective wizard. But Inspire XYZ were excellent. Why not let the bard have effects that require some kind of recitation, are used as a bonus action, and everyone that can hear the bard can be affected for an amount of time depending on the “song”, like combat stuff is mostly 1 minute, travel stuff might be 24 hours, and anything in between depending on the effect? If we [B]must[/B] limit it beyond that give it an “up to Y” limit of targets. 😂 Not gonna lie you got me with that. But yes agreed 100% I do think that the most recent UA Natural Explorer is fine, and gives the Ranger back some tie to nature, which it obviously needs to have. Rangers should be prepared absolutely. It’s totally backwards to make them known spells. Ranger and Paladin are totally backwards on Spellcasting. [/QUOTE]
