[QUOTE="DwynnsPlace, post: 7248330, member: 6912695"] A whole sequence of tweets on the subject can be found at: [url]https://www.sageadvice.eu/2017/10/11...ificer-mystic/[/url]. So it looks like they will focus on the ranger before the mystic and artificer, "when the new options in the UA ranger become official, using them with other official material will be seamless", "In the end, there will be 1 ranger: the PH ranger. It will get alternative features. The official game won't have 2 versions of a class", and "You'll be able to take feature X in place of feature Y. It won't be a whole different class." Sage is great for ideas and variants, Sage advice was a medium for gamers to ask questions from TSR and WOTC and getting ideas generated back for players in Dragon magazines for ages. The Mystic and Artificer where concepts discussed and presented in Dragon Magazines decades ago. Along with Hedge Wizards, Herbalists sub-class, Librarian and tons more.
