Message: <blockquote data-quote="Patlin" data-source="post: 3782915" data-attributes="member: 17264">I'd agree that a Ranger is at heart a wilderness guy and a hunter.  The archer ranger has always fulfilled this role better than the TWF ranger, but I think a TWF talent tree ought to be kept around for historical reasons.Ranger/Druids might be more interesting if the Ranger also had a natural weapon talent tree, especially if multiclassing within a power source was more advantageous than multiclassing outside it... not enough data on how that will work.I'm a little perplexed at how a Ranger will be portrayed as "Divine" as this seems to me to be less than a tenth of the Ranger's persona.  I suppose they'll have to stress the "one with the land" aspect of the character, but the danger there is infringing on the Druid.A ranger is different from a Druid in that he's a rugged survivalist, not a mystic.  He adapts to and overcomes his environment, rather truly becoming one with it.I like the idea of the Ranger taking over a lot of the scout, as the scout is a much more general character class.  Quickly moving about the battle field and taking out select targets is a good in battle role, while discovering what challenges lie ahead without being seen is an important out of combat role.  Only problem: a scout is even less divine than the ranger.If the ranger is going to be a divine character, it'll be important to make his spellcasting abilities feel like less of a tacked on afterthought.  More spells/abilities like Surefoot and Camoflage, maybe?</blockquote>
