all it took was one search, Search for: GM (thread titles only: on), From: Hussar, and it was the only result

i think it depends on how much you think that magic should actually be 'needed' to defeat those kinds of opponents, i see rangers using magic because they are more of a jack of all trades and diversify their skills much more while the fighter focuses in much more on combat specifically to the...

i have to disagree here that they would be unnecessary because i don't see the point of the ranger as to exist solely to be hunting these threats that require the supernatural to defeat, they are shepherds and guides of their lands, they know it and keep it in line, there doesn't need to be...

was it this one? https://www.enworld.org/threads/in-your-experience-how-good-are-gms.293390/

exactly, the ranger is focused on survivability and practicality, they will absolutely pick up any new useful tool that could be at their disposal, and in worlds with magic, especially such consistent and reliable magic, it's basically the king of tools available.

i don't really like that hunter's mark is used as a damage tool for rangers, i'd rather split that role off into a separate ability and let HM go whole hog into the tracking/locating role, the visual range is the worst part of HM IMO, as it only lets you track something you've already found, if...

maybe, but i find other-media characters nearly always have some ability or other which doesn't neatly fit into DnD's class structures that trying to nail them down to specifics is an exercise in futility, maybe if you could just cherry-pick whatever abilities you wanted regardless of class or...

i laugh, but you're not incorrect, batman pretty much is an urban environment ranger when you think about it: extensive knowledge of their preferred terrain(gotham) - check, highly versatile and adaptable kit to cover all situations - check, has and develops specialized kit against specific...

is a species not a packet of rules? so how is a new species not classified as new rules? that's like saying 'if i add a class entirely out of existing mechanics i haven't actually made a new class' I’m considering this an ‘all terriers are dogs but not all dogs are terriers’ situation, adding...

don't you mean would not? (also you're missing a space in your thread title between 'Classes I')

don't shifters function as a bit of a catch all anthro species? edit, eh, just read their description, it's a bit of a stretch, but i feel it would be easy for wizards to tweak their description to fit that role better.

i wouldn't see dragonborn as mutant kobolds or anything, but i can very much see them as very closely related species, enough to form a fully intermixed society between the two.

do we need a new thread for that? would it not merely continue this same conversation in a different place?

i would say all rangers should have it, it is a hard claim to make that the the animal companion is not one of the strongest threads in their cloth and i'd say the spell embodies something not exclusive to the spellcasting ranger and so should not be limited to them, it lets you play into that...

i think the throughline was if your pact is a part of the fiction then you're going to interact with your patron, if you interact with your patron surely at some point they're going to want something from you given this is supposedly why patrons would create warlocks in the first place, and if...

oh sure, i mean i was pretty certain someone would have done that at some point, but i just meant if taken in parallel, trying to overlap the poll participants as much as possible, how would they compare.

i would've been curious to see how the results of this poll compare taken against one for the nine 5e14 options, see how the different lineups and mechanical designs of each ranked against each other.

and you still can have characters who hit things with a sword, but there will likely be situations you may encounter, a flying enemy perhaps, something across a ravine, or when restrained in place, where all the movement in the world won't help you reach that target and the melee STR character...

while i'm fine with dropping them being exclusive think i would rather languages moved to being things more like Thieves Cant, to represent more of a knowledge of the vocabulary and implications of expected etiquette of a social sphere(so if you know Highspeech you also know how to act in high...
