[QUOTE="Apok, post: 940357, member: 1969"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Rogue changes[/b] He's a decent scout in urban terrain, but he gets no special bonuses there. Not to mention the fact that Rangers don't usually hang around cities for very long, so they don't know the terrain as well as a Rogue who is more familiar with it. Spells with limited usefulness. If you are in the wilderness, then these spells will make a big difference, but that's the way it should be; Rangers are better in the wild than Rogues are. So does the Rogue. Both share Evasion, but the Rogue also has Uncanny Dodge, Trap Sense, Improved Evasion, Opportunist, Skill Mastery, Sneak Attack, etc. Again, this is the way it should be, as Rangers are one of the primary fighting classes. However, the only real advantage a Ranger has over the Rogue is his BAB. Damage-wise, the Rogues Sneak Attack keeps him on par with most front-liners. He just lacks the HP to last long, but I don't see an issue with this. Assuming they've dropped the restriction regarding same-race Favored Enemies and non-evil Rangers. That's a very good question, I think I may just post it... Again, a Rangers HiPS only functions in the wild, he can't do it in a city or dungeon setting. [/QUOTE]
