[QUOTE="Osgood, post: 7683214, member: 32792"] Since there are so many different ideas about what a ranger should or should not be, I suggested they use subclasses to reflect different styles. One subclass gets a combat pet (maybe others get a non combat pet), one gets spells, and one can get the sprit companion (the least ranger-y to me, but it may work for others). I also recommended all rangers should get a way to make their two weapon fighting or archery better than any other class. I'm not sure on hit dice, I don't like them having barbarian level hp, but better/more flexible healing is nice. Maybe 2d4 is a better way to go, or 2d8 at 1st and 1d8 thereafter. As to the release schedule, I am surprised the slow and steady is popular, if for no other reason than if a particular adventure doesn't appeal to you, you're S.O.L. for several months. Or if you don't like published adventures, it's even worse. I also wonder about who actually fills these surveys out...I've done every one, but not a single one of my players has bothered (despite bitching nonstop about one thing or another about 5e--mostly the lack of player focused releases).
