After all, there may be other classes that get animal companions, some of which weren't even thought of when the druid section was written for the Player's Handbook. Then point him to the bit in the ranger description saying that for the purposes of animal companions, a ranger counts half his levels. That's the specific rule for the ranger.Then remind him that specific overrules general.</blockquote>
