Urban Ranger (Approved)

[Trouvere]

Oh good. I find myself amused by the thought of two distinct types of ranger. One can find anyone in a city, but step through the gate and oh gods no there are trees everywhere, while the other one can track anyone over a baked earth plain but oh gods the tall buildings it's too scary.

For the ultimate tracker, you could choose whichever Ranger version catches your fancy, then use a regular feat slot for the other tracking feat, and buy one of Survival or Gather Information cross-class. Maybe pick up Lesser Scent in place of the animal companion at 4th, too. Whee.

That is correct.

While UA doesn't quite agree, I would say that "no variant multiclassing" is the best possible ruling. If a variant and its base class really, really should allow multiclassing with each other, that could be a proposal.

I'd rather rule no unless specificly cleared. It's safer.

Since that is in opposition to the RAW, it should be a proposal.

Not realy, that's a "recomendation". RAW is you can't take the same class twice, and variant of that class is still that class.

The Urban Ranger variant and Urban Tracking feat have passed now, right?

Yes, by 5-0.
