The skill point increase, while I don't particularly like it, I can understand the reasoning. Makes sense for this concept of the Ranger.The idea with Saves that was addressed before is that all Fighter style classes in d20(okay, most) have a good Fort Save, and a BAD Will Save. This is the opposite for dedicated casters(...well, Arcane casters). Its really a balance issue so the class isn't too good on all points. Iron Will as a bonus feat could work fine though.Truthfully, I have no problem at all with the current Ranger in the PHB. It may be a little frontloaded, but other than that you can do anything you want with it...just like any other class, its only a starting point for your character. You take it where you want from there. Just don't expect to get only praise about your version of the Ranger, because(despite what the numbers seem to say) a lot of us DO like the Ranger as is. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
