[QUOTE="MissingDividends, post: 583801, member: 9113"] First of all...I am sick of the other ranger threads where nothing gets accomplished... I want to establish some things: I dont want a discussion of weather or not the ranger really is weak. I dont want a discussion of what other people did is flawed. D&D was origionally based on Tolkiens books. If you dont agree with the above, PLEASE DONT POST HERE Enough said. Strider in Tolkiens books had a few key points: 1) he was good at fighting 2) he said something like "i exist for one purpose, to kill the servents of the enemy" 3) he could travel well over the wilderness 4) he had excelent sences so ill go over which points are already covered and which need improvments (ill try to be breif) Covered: 1) the BAB, the weapon proficintcies 2) Favored enemy Need improvments: 3) Implintation of some wilderness- based feats/spells. Examples might be a new feats that would make it possible for a ranger to pass more quickly through types of land 4) Addition of a ranger bonus to Listen spot and search checks thats all for now (dinner) [/QUOTE]
