[QUOTE="SeaPainter, post: 4716855, member: 79349"] The thing that disappoints me the most about the B.M. Ranger is that he can either attack with his weapon, or the beast... but (unless you make a very wimpy, poorly-equipped ranger) your weapon will have a better chance to hit, and do more damage than the beast. So yes, the companion can help with flanking (or keep someone off you when you're at range)... but other people in your party can do that for you. Meanwhile the two-weapon ranger is swinging away with 2 waraxes, and... well, I'm sure you get the point. Now, with all that being said... I'm seriously considering making a Dwarven B.M. Ranger (with a sled dog companion) who is M.C. rogue (dwarven trapsmith), and who will steer toward the Avalanche Hurler P.P. With all the thought I've put in, it makes me said that there isn't a sort of "twin strike" (at-will power) that lets both ranger & companion have a melee basic in the same turn. [/QUOTE]
