Ahh, ok. Fair enough. I do like that.
Seems like that could easily be incorporated into the base class or a single subclass though, a la Land Druid: choose a "land" and get the associated bonus. It could be a Ranger "Survivalist" subclass.
The suggestion arose out of the analysis of people's frustrations with the Ranger, which based on survey data apparently start with people getting anxious over their home terrain because they think it is important, when it is just a ribbon. Apparently this is big enough for people that Mearls thinks just making the Ranger "native to a terrain' would be the good base hook.
At any rate, any 6E will not have a Beastmaster. We have killed that one, for sure.
