If you could send me a copy of the most recent edition of the character sheet generator, it would be much appreciated.

Tiny Outsiders. Book of Exalted Deeds pg. 168

We played it at level 7 with the Black Bear that I posted the average damage numbers of using Unleashed. We ran a few battles with multiple enemies and a couple against single target "boss" enemies. The bear died on the second "boss" because the player chose not to use his full turn to regain...

While your numbers are slightly off, I get the gist of it. Though I don't think it's a huge boost, it just serves to show the issue with the Hunter archetype as well. That being that Colossus Slayer and Horde Breaker should scale with higher levels the same way other classes damaging abilities...

Essentially the vote against it is based on an "If/then" statement. If an ability triggers and/or if a target fails a saving throw, then this creature adds this additional damage which then pushes the average total damage above the other archetype. That's not exactly a solid argument against...

Ugh, I detest the point buy system. 4d6 drop the lowest, as it's always been. But for this scenario, let's give it a look. No magic items. I'm writing this out while I do the numbers and I'm going to post it. If it comes out way ahead of Hunter then I'll certainly do something to drop it down...

No problem. Didn't even know they were by the same person. Haven't looked through the rest of his PDF's though I intend to because that Magitech one intrigued me.

This is the other one I found, based on Magitech.

The Enhanced Is this the one you are looking for? It's about as close as I can find to a mechanical warlock. The concept of a Clockwork Warlock is very intriguing and something I hadn't even considered until I saw this post.

Basically that was the idea. A consistent issue with the Ranger companion is it's tendency to get killed by a passing fart. The only way around this is generally "Hope the DM doesn't use too many AoE's!" or "Keep the pet next to you" of which neither is a solution. The Ranger level x4 health is...

I could see it working if you send the pet to attack a target in the previous round and when you trigger Unleashed on the following turn, that target is the only one in melee range of the companion. At that point it's pretty well focused on what it's already got it's claws into. But if there are...

The DM doesn't control the pet entirely, just what it will attack. Once you set it loose with Unleashed, it runs on instinct. To account for this, say there are 4 enemies. The DM will assign each enemy a number from 1-20. Now you could roll a d20 and if you land on 1-5, the pet goes for Creature...

I know I know, you're all thinking "Oh god, another one of these? Really? We get it, the Beast Master is lackluster comparatively." because even I'm getting tired of all the proposed changes to the archetype. However, I felt since a friend and I had put so much work into making the archetype...

I've made numerous revisions on them since posting this as they are overpowered to the umpteenth degree for a Familiar. I'll edit in the changes later this evening, don't have the time right now. Edit: The current balancing changes have been made to the OP.

Rogue could work. It could be worked in with some moral wiggling. I lack the Dex stat for it though, thus why I was looking at Fighter. The ones I'm averse to are Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Sorcerer, and Wizard. Probably Ranger too. Mostly because that one is disappointing.
