[QUOTE="Nichwee, post: 5313335, member: 84242"] To this I present the following 3 points of note/possibilities: 1: There is nothing to say that the Ranger will be BA-spamming. Just because the Fighter and Rogue are doesn't mean the Ranger will be (this may be WotC's way to reintroduce At-Wills, Encounters and Dailies to the martial power source for new Essensials players). My guess tbh as they will be used to Controllers having varied powers I doubt simply the fact that it is a martial controller would confuse them enough to make not having the class use powers would be best. 2: It could just be an At-Will Stance type thing. One stance adds "slowed" to shots, maybe upgrading to "immobalised" at some level, while another adds "dazed". Or something like that. And triggered Encounter Powers (Like Power Strike) could add conditions of more significant types ("stunned" etc). 3: As the [I]Controller Ranger[/I] will probably lose Hunter's Quarry it may gain an effect to designate a Quarry that then allows a random/spicific condition to be applied to that target each round if hit.
