After all, what is a seeker but a ranger that went full on primal, and what is a runepriest but a str cleric who won his monastery's spelling bee. This does a number of interesting things for the runepriest and seeker, and perhaps some good things for strength clerics and maybe some worrisome things for the ranger (haven't thought it through to its full extent)1) it increases feat selection for the two 'ignored' classes, giving hopefully reasonable feats to round out their abilities...runepriests should be able to consider their healing runes to be word of healing for these purposes.2) It gives all the involved classes more power choices. In the seeker case it can be accused of make range an "V" (or maybe and 'E' <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" /> ) shaped class, but Wis has always been a rangers friend and if they want to grab some magic-like powers *shrug* .  Its also interesting to think about a str cleric taking rune priest powers...some rules would have to make this a reasonable choice3)It decreases the total number of classes, but increases the number of sub-classes. make of this what you wish to.4) It lets support for ranger = support for seeker, it lets rangers benefit from seeker support, in short it makes all support for the classes go just a little bit (or in some cases alot) further.Like I said, I make no claims this is good or bad, but I think its interesting and worth exploring in my own thoughts, and maybe some of y'all will like it too.</blockquote>
