D&D General Besides Nimble, are there other stripped down versions of 5e...

[Reynard]

Exactly. I remember the follower table in 2e was filled with wild stuff.

I still think the 2e version of the class is the best take. In a world where the stealth skill or two-weapon fighting were class features, it was a great design. 3e's universal mechanics undermined that.

I feel like the modern ranger suffers from the same problem as the modern druid: an incidental, almost ribbon ability has become their whole personality.
