[QUOTE="Giltonio_Santos, post: 7683178, member: 36874"] I believe I said everything I wanted to say about the ranger previously, but I have something to say about the release schedule. WotC is having more of my money with the current release schedule than they ever had, and increasing their rate of release can actually reduce the amount of money they'll be getting from me. It happens that I don't need a lot besides the three core books to run my games, but the slow rate of release is making me want to collect them, something that I never felt about previous editions. As long as they keep their current rate of new books, I don't expect my collector impulse to slow down, but going back to a faster rate of new books will probably make me feel like collecting them is too much money and too much stuff that I don't know when I'm going to use. It's an anecdote, obviously, but I have at least two friends who described the same feeling and (like me) have bought everything WotC released for 5E. They (once again, like me) would have purchased less if the rate of new releases was faster. If our situation mirrors a more general approach to purchasing habits, then I understand why they've opted for their slower release schedule, and I wouldn't expect it to change. [/QUOTE]
