[QUOTE="The Souljourner, post: 422273, member: 1622"] Is it just me or does the Ranger's spell selection SUCK? I mean, Summon Nature's Ally IV? At 15th level? Damn, you really have to thanks the nature gods for giving you that challenge rating 3 animal when you're going up against a Mature Adult Blue Dragon with its 31 AC and 14d6 breath weapon. WTF? The ranger's spell selection is terrible. All the spells are those ridiculously specialized spells that not even druids take. Why even bother? I'd much rather see a ranger with a few more skill points and an extra feat here and there. If you're going to give him spells, give him some friggin' spells. If you're not, then just don't. As far as I can tell a ranger's spells are unlikely to be useful 95% of the time. The only mildly useful ones (resist elements and the healing ones) are going to be totally outshone by the party cleric or even the paladin. So why even bother with this spell list? It's ridiculous. -The Souljourner [/QUOTE]
