Good question.I like that.Standard boilerplate. I'll remove it.As I said in my post, I don't know - I'm not sure whether to add them as epic abilities (probably not, since most groups don't go epic), or add a high-level feat to gain them, or simply let the ranger choose the terrain a second time to gain them. Since they're rather powerful, I'm leaning toward the feat route.More impossible? That's like saying someone's more dead, or more pregnant. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> But seriously, I'm not sure what you mean here - I don't have any blizzard abilities. That's a good idea for the Hills/Mountains FT though.Yeah, I figured that myself. I'm going to change it to ECL (CR for those of you who still use the standard system).Sudden Strike? ??? I was aiming for something that typefies a guerilla fighter without overshadowing the rogue.Any suggestions? I know these are a bit weak, though I'd intended for them to be minor powers to start with.The half-damage thing was because you're aiming for the legs instead of vital areas; I can restore the # attacks to full, but I was worried about the ranger immediately slowing something down to 1/4 speed in one round. Then again, maybe it's not a bad thing.I'm looking for more Bow Mastery abilities, actually. The loss of TWF is deliberate, for reasons stated earlier, and I'm trying to get away from adding a bunch of bonus feats. Where? It doesn't fit with any of their other abilities.What's Flawless Stride?I don't own any non-core books. If you're going to refer to non-core material, at least tell me what it is or what it does.That's what woodland stride is. Permanent freedom of movement is far too powerful to add as a class ability.Four isn't enough? Considering the ranger has to spend a month in the terrain, that's hard enough, don't you think?Combat Archery (which does the same thing) is an epic feat. I made it into a high-level one that requires BAB +16. I considered giving it to the ranger as a bonus feat, though.How about allowing the ranger to use any of his other feats/abilities with it, like Hindering Shot, Sniper Shot, etc.?Re: the suggested changes:I only did it here to let everyone know they're still in.I guess Hunter's Lore is kind of redundant - I'll ditch it.That's great if you don't plan to go into epic territory, but I designed the system to scale up to L40. I like the +1 bonus idea, though.I'll go over this thing again, map out the ability trees, and see what I can come up with.</blockquote>
