I'm definitely thinking I want to try a mounted beastmaster some day if I'm ever in a game where there aren't two other people who want to be rangers.One multi class option is to get just one level of wizard so you can cast Mage Armor on your companion. An especially attractive option for critters that can't plausibly wear barding, like snakes or flyers. Once you hit 15 in ranger, Shield and Absorb Elements will help protect both yourself and your pet. You could also potentially do this by going Eldritch Knight, but that's a deeper multiclass and you'll be waiting longer to share spells, but if you're dipping fighter anyway...</blockquote>
