Aragorn is the perfect Ranger. I agree about your thoughts on Perrin (great series). But don't forget Legolas is also a terrific ranger. The way he hunts and tracts the orcs to the village in the Hobbit trilogy. The way he wields two swords while moving through the hordes of enemies (what the...

I guess this confirms the Ranger will be reworked because of Favored Enemy.

You can also create magic tomes that offer a feat to the person who reads it and trains for X days. Then tome disappears. Now you have both worlds

That version was not very appealing as it was a weaker version of the fighter in addition to not what we envisioned. We created our own spell-less ranger with modified subclasses.

Because no character wants to be a Ranger as written. Also, Robin Hood has no magical abilities.

if you need feats, multiclassing, or correct game situations to play a class then the class is poorly created

Best 5e Ranger is use any but the PHB version

5th edition ranger

Hopefully that is the case. I think that the Hunter 3rd level feature needs a boost. The newer sublasses offer one that give damage and and an additional feature that offers some additional benefit. Currently, most Hunters select the damage bonus. Maybe offer a player to select 2 options (and...

I wonder when they will give the Ranger Hunter subclass bonus spells and an additional 3rd level feature to place it on par with the other new subclasses.

6th edition with a better written Ranger and Sorcerer class. Maybe different answer if variant class features come to fruition.

You are right. But then I don't understand your complaint that if the Ranger gains the swim & climb ability, this removes the Athletics requirement. The ability only bestows movement speed.

It doesn't remove Athletic requirements for climbing and swimming. It just states that they gain climbing and swimming and their speeds are equal to their movement speed. You still have to make checks to see if they are successful or not. Ie a climbing ability doesn't not allow them to climb a...

Allowing Homebrew (especially Ranger & Sorcerer) Using a standard array of 17, 16, 15, 14, 12, 10, with no bonuses added from race. Earliest ASI bonus can be added is 4th level and only once (sorry variant human).

The PHB version is horrendous. These modifications are a step in the right direction, but the class still needs more work. Deft Explorer is great, though I would have preferred expertise in 2 skills (why give it to the barbarian). Also I would have added the proficiency to the initiative roll...

Great, instead of a new ranger class, they give a new ranger subclass. How about fix the class first before creating a subclass that may need to be changed depending on what the final ranger will be.

A ranger that is playable and enjoyable. And a better written Sorcerer.

Yes, intentionally made it 1 minute so not overpowering but also in line with the paladin’s improved divine smite. Yes it is a mistake. Will correct it when have a chance. Thank you for the praise for Alacrity, Natural Explorer, and Master Scout. Agree that Hide in Plain Sight anyone...

Thought to share version we have been playing. This version is the spell casting version (note there is a non-spell casting version as well.) https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-LiLlbZfozU16w6hzfY6 The premise of the changes are to Eliminate need for GM to change adventure to appease the ranger...

https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-LiLlbZfozU16w6hzfY6 Like many, found the original class lacking in identity as well having features that function only when specific conditions are met. Never found that damage was an issue, just the features. Over the years, this version has changed slightly...
