[QUOTE="Adamant, post: 7542603, member: 6923485"] You may want to reconsider some of your ratings for Monster Slayer, since you made a major mistake on Slayer's Prey. It lasts until you take a rest, and can be used unlimited times but only affects 1 enemy at a time. Also, Supernatural Defense works against any saving throw, not just spells. I think that for Slayer's Prey it should be bumped up to black, since it's even with hunter's mark until level 5, and about half the effectiveness without using a spell slot after you get a second attack. It can even be stacked with hunter's mark if you have enough time, since it doesn't take concentration. Supernatural Defense is probably still black, but you should mention breath weapons and charm/fear effects to avoid giving the impression it only works against spells. I also wouldn't rate Hunter's Sense red, since many dm's frown on people bringing metagame knowledge and there's always the chance that you may not remember the monster correctly in the first place. Used immediately before combat, it will usually give accurate and occasionally valuable information that could avoid wasting time on ineffective tactics. I think it should probably be rated purple instead. I don't know if any of this would affect the overall rating of the class, but it's not quite as bad as you described it. [/QUOTE]
