My requiring is just not having such a class at all. The original plan for the beasts was just have them as a special kind of hireling. Just a beastly kind, and this is what I will do at my table. The summoned familiar however is not a creature as the original one in its own sense. It is a magical construct which has to be directed by you. I don´t even like it to have its own initiative, when the ranger pet shares its initiative with the ranger...I could also see the familiar requiring concentration to attack as the cost you pay. Maybe you just have to direct it mentally. The ranger pet should just need a single action to be set at a target, maybe even just a bonus action and maybe also requiring your concentration. If your concentration breaks, there just should be a chance that your beast goes wild or flees.Other mechanics, still balanced, as a pet ranger can´t use hunter´s mark in conjunction with his pet.</blockquote>
