One guy is playing it in my real life group, two sessions and only two combats so far, he's by far our biggest damage dealer... but I think that's more because he's the player that knows the game the best within the current new group. Like, everyone else is still figuring out how to calculate their attack bonuses. Also allowed it in my pbp and it was a popular choice, but obviously we are only a few rounds into the first combat there.I will say I found the whole five mile giant sense thing disconcerting. I as the DM am not often even sure what would be within five miles of the party. I'm just confused by it, but then again maybe I misunderstand something because nobody else seemed to find that odd and it was sort of a feature of the normal 5e ranger with some slightly different range and verbiage. That said, One mile vs Five or Six miles are very different things to me.I also didn't like the obviously fast and loose language they wrote up on some super specific stuff that I would expect to see more polished. Humanoids as a type is often too broad (I don't actually have a problem with this, just it feels weird to be better at killing drow because you used to hunt down goliath barbarians in the mountains or something). I'd even like to have it be more specific in other non race related ways, like I'm an expert at tracking mages or something, or chromatic dragons, or something.The animal list... I'd like something a little more open. I don't have a solution, but I never liked a list and I also wasn't a huge fan of "CR" though that wasn't that bad. Given I have not even looked at the full ranger spell list I'm sure I'm not the most informed on the subject.</blockquote>
