[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 9522577, member: 63508"] I think it was for simplicity's sake. And to anti-noob trap. And to have Relentless Hunter and Precise Hunter be easier to write. And to make Hunter and Beast Master simpler However I would have liked the option to choose between beast bond (beast), foe bane (germ), hail of thorns (plant), or hunter's mark (spirit). [HEADING=3]"Level 1: Favored Enemy[/HEADING] You always have the Beast bond, Foe Bane, Hail of Thorns or Hunter’s Mark spell prepared. You can cast the chosen spell twice without expending a spell slot, and you regain all expended uses of this ability when you finish a Long Rest. The number of times you can cast the spell without a spell slot increases when you reach certain Ranger levels. [B]Level 13: Relentless Hunter[/B] Taking damage can’t break your Concentration on your chosen spell from Favored Enemy.

Getting a heal spell off a class feature called Favored Enemy would be silly. "I hate giants so much, I learned to heal myself" Overall I think the issue is WOTC was so scared by the "cries for backwards compatibility", they didn't want to introduce anything new or altering to the gameplay loop. * Beast Bond would have to change.
