yes. 5E is basically, 80% of characters have 14 CON, 19% have combinations of 12 or 16 and 1% is everything else just delete the stat, move con saves to STR(it would help balance of STR vs. DEX) and give everyone +2 HP per level. have HDs heal max amount when used. also add universal...

I dont like them much either, it's cool idea, but their spells come online too little too late. So I like any version of spell-less ranger there is. as for half casters, here is my version of spell progression for them: right table is modified spell slots and spell levels. you get new spell...

I don't mind HM being in rangers arsenal for those who want to use it. it's an OK spell. I would like to delete all Ranger features that rely on using HM. HM as an option to use is OK, HM as a mandatory feature that sucks away class resource pool is awful.

don't need to change base DC if you make everything, including DCs as two ability based. Fortitude save: str+con reflex save: int+dex will save: wis+cha but I would tie most spell DCs to mental stats or Con Sorcerer: cha+con Druid: wis+int Paladin: wis+cha warlord: int+cha ranger: int+wis...

it's a level 4 feat(needed to clarify that), will edit, so unless you want to be a wizard with 8 con, you should have more HP than a companion. something like 80% of PCs have 14 Con. AC, HP is fixed with prof bonus, irrelevant of ability scores, same with attack or damage, abilities only affect...

me too, but for most basic use, we should not overthink it. here is a simple houserule feat for it. Companion: requires level 4+ +1 ASI, gain a beast or plant companion movement: one of the 4, Bonus action Dash or Disengage 1. 40ft, 40ft climb 2. 30ft, 30ft swim, water breathing 3. 10ft...

You should talk it out with your fellow players and see what is appropriate for your games, but for what is worth, IMHO they did the correct thing, mutiny is punishable by death. also no half measures, either you grant clemency to all mutineers or you hang the lot of them.

Have hunter's mark damage part last for 1 minute without concentration, but skill advantage for full duration, no Conc OFC. that way you can have both combat bonuses when you need it and ranger's "flavor" of having an ability to help tracking. it would be best if that is not a spell in the 1st...

animal companion is worth more than one feat later on, but I do agree that it is worth 1 feat when you get the feature. 3,5e ranger has 1/2 it's level as effective druid level, so animal companion improves at levels 6,12 and 18. Natural bond feats improves animal companion for 3 effective druid...

agree, I would even allow Extra attack features to stack from various classes. 1st, it buffs mostly full martials which is good. 2nd if you want 5 attacks as fighter 5, monk5, paladin 5, ranger 5, go for it. It would be one really good feature at lvl20.

guess we do not need to worry about T-800 just yet.

I don't see why it cannot be large beast from level 3? warhorse is a good example. just needs it's HP,AC, speed, damage to be balanced. AC: 14 HP:20 Speed 60ft, Bonus action Dash Damage: 1d6+4, attack +6,

yes, it would also feed into narrative that you can kill a lot of mooks per turn without some cleave mechanics as an option. also it's fun to roll attack rolls more times, at least for me. with a lot more attacks per attack action, TWF can be made easier, just increase number of attacks by 50%...

how to have a tiger companion? your beast have HP equal to 5 plus 5×your ranger level, if that amount is higher than average HP of the beast in MM or other books, you can tame that beast, Tiger has 37HP, that means 7th level.

that works also, but I would still lean towards more attacks than more damage per attack. more attacks is more consistent and can temper the swinginess of d20.

I would rather have 5 attacks for 1X damage than 1 attack for 5X damage.

6 seconds, 6 action points per turn.

I would say that is covered by extra attack, but there is little consistency in the game, cantrips are universal at levels 5,11,17 but without ability bonus(by default atleast) and extra attacks as a martial you might get and might not, universal is 5th level and additional only for fighter...

solo monsters are always bad idea for encounter, action economy will be the end of them. if you do not want to add 2nd wave of monsters as reinforcements, there can always be healing magic available or just adding more HP to monsters. lowest goblin does not need to have 7HP, he can have 15HP...
