"Witchfire" and "Curse of the Dark Dream" both look like WAY more powerful effects than "Fox's Cunning" and "Split the Tree," which are both kind of situational. Let's say you're up against a level-appropriate solo encounter... first round, the warlock starts the mob wandering exactly where the party wants it with his daily, and if things start to look dangerous, he can hit it with another round of sucking via Witchfire. Meanwhile, the ranger is sitting in the back plinking away with his bow.But on the other hand, once enemies start mobbing the party, the ranger has a definite one-up. Not only is "Fox's Cunning" a sweet and cinematic-feeling counterattack, "Nimble Strike" will often let the ranger avoid those nasty OAs for firing his bow in melee. The warlock can fend off mobs with Eyebite, if he catches them coming in time, and he can run away like a little girl to get free concealment, but not so handy with the close-range skirmishing.</blockquote>
