[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 9461415, member: 6801299"] I like the flavor of HM on the ranger, it describes being "rangery" somewhat. Better searching, better tracking on a focus of your senses, and bonus damage. And bonus damage is a problem within power level of a class. and there are few possible paths to take: 1. Current solution, give extra usages and who cares, you got something extra from your class resource pool instead of something else, but it's simple solution. 2. Modify HM spell itself that it does not require Concentration. Limiting damage to once on your turn could be a healthy compromise. 3. Give option to ignore Concentration on HM for shorter duration(1 min) like Dragon sorcerer or War cleric. 4 Dig more into Ranger class resource pool and see if and at what level could you ignore Concentration form HM. 5th level seems a good spot when actually decent spell with Concentration come into play. 5. Give ability similar to HM, but not being HM: As they did in SW5E with Ranger's quarry; [URL unfurl="true"]https://sw5e.com/characters/classes/Scout[/URL] you do it for free at-will, and if you want to double dip your damage and spend your regular slots and Concentration on HM go ahead.
