That's very frequently going to be worth giving up your attack for. The constrictor snake might be an even better bet, it's damage is a little lower but it's more accurate and comes with a restrain effect which is pretty nasty. It's kind of hard to imagine a ranger and his faithful boa constrictor companion though.Regarding extra benefits that hunters gain for their companions, they get to add their proficiency bonus to their companion's attack, damage and AC. They also give their pet a max hp of their lvl x 4.</blockquote>
