Depends on how rangery and paladins you want them.in theory how hard would it be for paliden and ranger to fold into fighter?

OK yeh to be concise LOLDepends on how rangery and paladins you want them.
I think that it could be done if there were some structural changes to allow for Subclasses that could, optionally, have a greater impact on play style. But throw some primal magic at a fighter, give them some skill expertise in survival and stealth, and let them pick a quarry when you roll initiative and give a bonus die of damage against their quarry? Well hell, that’s pretty ranger-y to me.in theory how hard would it be for paliden and ranger to fold into fighter?
Well there are real levels to the rangeriness or paladinosity.OK yeh to be concise LOL
What if they opened up design space to let subclass features replace class features? Give up your action surge for beast companion, give up second wind for some kind of maneuver your beast could learn to protect allies or take down a weakened opponent. I think it sounds neat.Well there are real levels to the rangeriness or paladinosity.
It's like the Beastmaster ranger. There was not enough space to make the Beastmaster people wanted within the ranger. You definitely couldnt fit the Beastmaster or Green Knight in the fighter.
Could you put ranger and paladin back in fighter? Sure. Would more than 25% of the fans like the outcome? Nah.
Ehh. Still don't see it working.What if they opened up design space to let subclass features replace class features?

WotC is definitely not going to do anything of the sort, but WotC also isn’t my dad, and given recent product quality, they may as well be one of many publishers as far as I’m concerned. The difference between the best homebrewers I’ve seen and WotC is art budget.
No doubt on the other hand looked at from space -> there is this multiclassing system and bringing in some cleric levels or druid ones in theory could be ways of controlling those metrics if the core elements were functional kind of like how many "Paladins" I have seen multi-classing with full caster alreadyWell there are real levels to the rangeriness or paladinosity.
Beastmaster has definitely been a design issue (is anyone satisfied with ranger yet?) for a while I just realised that in spite of loving the Green Knight flavor I have barely looked at it...It's like the Beastmaster ranger. There was not enough space to make the Beastmaster people wanted within the ranger. You definitely couldnt fit the Beastmaster or Green Knight in the fighter.
Limits on satisfaction for design outcome I can dig, Warlords and Swordmages my favorite 4e classes do not reflect so well in 5e. Yeh one can build some version of a Warlord and maybe more than one but the potential is so very high (better than 4e) the results are not satisfying either. I am probably just picky about my swordmage.Could you put ranger and paladin back in fighter? Sure. Would more than 25% of the fans like the outcome? Nah.
I am considering tandem fighting uses a bonus action.... yes I know that means if you are guiding your beast or squire to make an attack and avoiding them getting explicitly targeted, you won't be using that bonus action to make a two weapon attack. They might be able to give you advantage on one of your attacks as well of course.What if they opened up design space to let subclass features replace class features? Give up your action surge for beast companion,
A bladesinger only is proficient in one martial weapon, unless they multiclass, take a feat or multiclass and chances are that weapon is a Rapier. IF you make it a 2-handed blade it will be completely incompatible with a bladesinger.Sure but so will most Bladesingers when they get that vorpal blade
Glances at Eldritch Knight And be usable? Hard. Very, very hard.in theory how hard would it be for paliden and ranger to fold into fighter?
