[QUOTE="Caliber, post: 251504, member: 1310"] There are more alt Rangers than actual regular classes, methinks. I have to agree that your Ranger is defintely tipping the scale on the over-powered end. And since everyone is posting thier version, heres mine. Instead of TWF and Ambidexterity at 1st level, a Ranger can select a two-feat package. He will receieve the 1st feat in the package at 1st level and the 2nd one at 2nd. Sample packages are: TWF Ambidexterity Point Blank Shot Rapid Shot Endurance Run If a player can come up with some other appropriate package, I normally let them take it. That change was to give Rangers a little more variety, without providing so many bonuses at 1st. My other change deals with Favored Enemies. Rangers receive 1 "Favored Enemy Point" at every odd level (1st, 3rd, 5th, etc...) This point can be spent to gain a +1 against any of the possible Favored Enemies of a traditional Ranger. Every additional point can either be used to pick a new Favored Enemy or to increase the bonus against an already selected one. At 20th the bonus against ALL Favored Enemies increases by +1. Maybe you can use all of these alt Rangers to get a better sense of balance. :D [/QUOTE]
