[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9462011, member: 7030563"] A raw percentage is not really relevant though. You have to look at the capabilities of the spells. The Ranger's good combat spells are all concentration. To use 1st level for example, they don't get non-concentration spells that are comparable to Magic Missile, Dissonant Whispers, Command, Wrathful Smite etc. Other classes may have a lower percentage of non-concentration spells, but they have more viable spells to cast in combat without competing with concentration. I would agree, but neither do they need the 13th level and 17th level and most egregiously their 20th level capstone tied to the spell. Doing so makes this "decision" much less of a decision or to put it another way, biases that decision towards a single spell. For 13th level why not just have it that damage can't break concentration on any Ranger spell and for 17th level you have advantage while concentrating on any Ranger spell. Neither of those would be OP and I think that and a decent capstone would placate most of the discontent. Based on what I have seen about satisfaction, and the 105 pages of this post I don't think "enough" players are satisfied with the new Ranger, at least not with respect to the metrics WOTC was using during the playtest.
