They did that with the UA subclass, but it won't help the current subclasses.

So you can mix and match. Hunter'sMark, 3rd level +shadow Mark, 2nds level +fey Mark, 1st level Use 3 slots into a potent, long lasting mark.

Effectively, yes. "Modifiers to damage are applied in the following order: adjustments such as bonuses, penalties, or multipliers are applied first; Resistance is applied second; and Vulnerability is applied third." "Some creatures and objects have Immunity to certain damage types and...

Also. Seems like it might be ok to allow a few metamagic spells to stack. Maybe a max of 1 per spell level, or part of upcasting each one. Build your own Hunter's Mark. I e Base Hunter's Mark (+1d6) +slowing Mark +pact tactics Mark Spend 3 spell slots, get a powerful Mark. And try not to...

"Metamagic spells" is a good term. And yea, it could work for other classes too. Though you'd want to be careful not to allow too much nova. Shape spell. Casting time: no action, you cast an area spell of level 1 or lower. You can change the shape to a cone or a radius. At Higher Level...

Better. Not perfect, spirit guardians is still a bit pushed, but better.

Not sure that wording quite works with "Taking damage can’t break your Concentration on Hunter’s Mark." Or "The damage die of your Hunter's Mark is a d10 rather than a d6." Maybe something like... Casting Time: no action, when you cast Hunter's Mark. Duration: same as the triggering Hunter's...

If they are rider spells, then you don't need to adjust the class at all. Or even Hunter's Mark. X Mark Casting Time: no action, when you cast Hunter's Mark. Duration: the same as the triggering Hunter's Mark. When you hit the target of your Hunter's Mark, you also do X.

1e rangers where a fighter subclass, with spells and bonus damage to some specific creatures. Which I guess is Aragon. A fighter with a few spells and a plot sword.

I'd actually prefer the ranger be more of a glass canon. D6 hit die and extra damage. It would be a nice counter to the paladin being support / defense.

Does that mean using the base class as is? Because the only way I can think of to "fix' it without yet another edition is to add spells. Specifically spells that stack with or count as Hunter's Mark, and thus use the base clase features

Well you can homebrew and third party it. But they just printed the book, I can't imagine them changing it for another 10 years. But they could add more spells. Give it more of it's own identity.

Because it has, and it's not going to change anytime soon. Accept what can't be changed (the base class) and change what you can (add new spells). Sure, but you need to somehow add in "Hunter's Mark" so it benefits from the ranger features. I.e. can't break on concentration, advantage on the...

Needs better wording, but what if higher level ranger spells that combined with Hunter's Mark. Thus giving more variety. This doesn't require any rewrites to the ranger class, just new spells. And thus more likely to go though possible ways to combine When you cast this spell you also cast...

There are enough slots and free casts to maintain it just fine. The issue is they can't use other concentration spells in combat. But even then, most are out of combat spells and not competing with HM (pass without trace, locate object, beast sense). And many other concentration spells don't...

It's unchanged because it's popular enough as is. Same as most of this UA. Only 3 new subclasses (counting hexblade as new). The rest are minor tweaks.

You get Spare the Dying with the subclass. You don't need to cast it any other time, just when someone drops.

But my paladin 6/monk 14 has +11 to all the saves!

I'd much prefer level 20 being something like "All creatures are considering under your Hunter's Mark". Also. Level 11: you can add +Wis to damage once per turn.

Because control inherently scales. Command, or instance, works just as well against a Goblin as a Dragon Turtle. And a cleric can cast it 6 times vs goblins, and 22 times vs Dragon Turtles. Thus they scale 4x faster than monsters. Where a fighter might take 2 turns to kill something at level...
