Watch Detective and Track

[Hypersmurf]

One of the prerequisites for the Watch Detective PrC is the Track feat.

The flavour text says that the majority of rangers who take the class are the Urban Ranger variant. And yet the Urban Ranger loses Track in favour of Shadow... making it harder for them to qualify for the class...

Even worse... the class that requires the Track feat doesn't have Wilderness Lore as a class skill!

Very perceptive, Hyp.

Well, if you use the Urban Ranger variant class, just substitute Track for Shadow as a prerequisite... At least, that's what I'd do, but that's just me houseruling...

Don't forget that the Urban Ranger variant is just a list of suggestions. You can take some, all, or none of them. Personally, I think leaving in Track is FAR more usefull than replacing it with Shadow. I mean, he is supposed to TRACK down suspects isn't he?

Most of the suggestions are good, just leave that one out. Also, you can make an Urban Lore skill that is used for tracking within the city a class skill for both the Urban Ranger and the Watch Detective.

INHO, Track is a great feat, and even using the variant, a Urban Ranger may want to burn a feat on it, especially if going for this PrC.
