[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9692883, member: 2209"] Looks like stuff that was later added to the 1e Unearthed Arcana ranger update, mostly expanding the giant class list for FF and MM II stuff. UA has provision for rangers with specialization though. From the CD: Humanoid/giant class opponents Following is an expanded list of those humanoid creatures that are considered giant class, qualifying the ranger for a damage bonus (+1 hit point per level of the ranger) when such a creature is engaged in combat. The roster includes all giant class creatures mentioned in the Players Handbook, plus other similar creatures from the FIEND FOLIO ® Tome and Monster Manual II. bugbear goblin cyclopskin grimlock dune stalker hobgoblin ettin kobold flind meazel giant norker gibberling ogre gnoll ogre mage ogrillon orc quaggoth tasloi troll xvart The ranger's weapons Of the ranger's three initial weapons of proficiency, one must be either a bow (any sort) or a light crossbow. However, the ranger cannot have both a bow and a light crossbow as weapons of proficiency until attaining 7th level (at least), when the weapon type not already taken could be counted as the fifth weapon of proficiency. By the time a ranger gains a fourth weapon proficiency at 4th level, the character's list of weapons must include: either a bow or a light crossbow, a dagger or a knife, a spear or an axe, and a sword (of any type). The initial weapon selection for the character must be made so as to take these requirements into account. [/QUOTE]
