[QUOTE="orbitalfreak, post: 1031896, member: 1669"] I was reading the 3.5 DMG yesterday and came across the Horizon Walker (p. 189-191). It's a class that gets bonuses each level dealing with certain terrain types. The class as written looks like it was intended for a Ranger, but I'm thinking that the flavour of the class would apply equally well to a travelling Druid. What I'm interested in is reworking the class to fit a druid in a balanced manner. I'm wanting to give the class a "+1 level of existing class" spell progression. Since the class would be a spellcaster, Will should become a Good save. Would dropping the hit die from d8 to d6, and dropping the BAB from Good to Bad be a good balancing factor? Class requirements would also add "ability to cast 3rd level spells" to reflect its "spell caster" nature. [COLOR=silver][code] "Ranger" version "Druid" version BAB Good (+1/level) Bad (+0.5/level) Hit Die d8 d6 Good Saves Fort Fort Will Skills 4/level 4/level Special Terrain Mastery Terrain Mastery +1 Spellcasting level [/code][/COLOR] Thoughts?
