He said that the ranger is overpowered. More specifically, he said that the devs have said that it is overpowered, and that they deliberately made it a little overpowered so that they could see what players complained about and fine tune the overall class based on those complaints. He is saying as much because, as I understand it, Mike Mearls said something along those lines over social media. I haven't seen the statement myself, so I can't speak to the accuracy of the claim.I find the ability "problematic" because it is much more powerful than comparable abilities, including various limited resource abilities such as spells, and because it too easily disrupts a DMs preparation time and makes the game more difficult to prepare for. I would like some element of its features to survive. I would, however, like it to generate a more limited output of data, or at least generate the data that it does with more DM oversight. Pukunui can speak for himself. I don't want to assume I know what his issues with the power are, despite the fact that we obviously agree that the power can become annoying.</blockquote>
