My character is a ranger who's father was a warlock, and eventually subclasses into a necromancer warlock. This is the PERFECT ranger type for her, and I can't wait to fix this in her next iteration.

Pseudo Potato Undying Patron. I can't stand the other magic casters, they just feel wrong for my playstyle. If you've ever seen Yuyuhakusho then you know how the Spirit gun fires, that is basically how I treat my Eldrich Blasts. I just back it up hard with a few archers added to my group in the form of animated bones :)

As someone who has played an eladrin HW for more than a year, I will say that, while I love the HW concept, if you are in a planar-heavy setting, consider either multiclassing if that's your thing, or working with your DM to add additional flavorings, or taking really awesome special items. I love the HW aspect and was drawn for that reason, but honestly it's been very challenging in a planar-heavy narrative where the other players are drawing on the planes as well, and some even have Misty Step, etc. The HW doesn't stand out as much as it's advertised, in that regard, and you can be limited in your "flavorings" so to speak. So, like most Ranger types (IMO), it still lacks something. I am using the revised Ranger UA content, which helped some, but if you multiclass with HW, you're going to get those teleportation powers more slowly, which is frustrating.

one player i played with was allowed by the dm to flavor their H.W ranger by not actually turning ethereal, but instead making his arrows and his weapons temporarily ethereal so that he could shoot through blocks such as walls, shields, and even armor but depending o n what he's trying to shoot through he has to make a wisdom check (dc raises on items closer to the target such a shields and armor). as an example, if theres a man with a shield and heavy armor he can roll to hit like normal and if he rolls something such as a 13, higher than the persons natural armor class but lower than the armor class with their shield and armor then he can use one of his Ethereal Charges, rolling a wisdom check to see if he can time the Etherealness perfectly to shoot through the armor but still hit the man. if he fails, he just hits the armor and no damage is taken like a miss. if he succeeds, he does damage as if he hit. tldr: homebrewed horizon walker can shoot through armor as a flavor instead of walking through walls for 30 feet.

I love Horizon Walker. Such a nice addition for Ranger. It's so much fun. We changed Etheral step to add more flavour. I can end up being in several different dimesions when I use it and get small advantages and disadvantages depending where I pass through. Nothing super OP or super dangerous but Its really fun.

I do like some of the ranger subclasses, in particular the Gloom stalker. But I'm quite annoyed that The Beastmaster hasn't been revised. One of the things that I like best about the ranger was having an animal companion who wasn't going to die if a goblin archer got lucky... In my experience The Beastmaster is very under-powered.

If I am a horizon walker and I cast haste on my self how many times can I do distant strike? Because when you cast haste and you have extra attack you get four attacks, so does that mean I can use distant attack four times?
@jessemiller9891
@jessemiller9891 6 жыл бұрын
Okay so what happens is you get distant strike at 11th level, then your 12th and 13th level multiclassed into fighter. At fifth level of ranger you get extra attack. Whenever you take the attack action you make a second attack. So on a previous turn, you cast haste on yourself and then use the second action to make an attack and your bonus action to hunters mark something. Then, on your next turn, you planar warrior a target, use your regular attack action which then triggers extra attack, which, as long as you have 2 enemies, triggers distant strike allowing you to attack again, then if their is a third enemy you make a third attack to it. Now, after that you can use your action surge to take a second attack action. When you do the same thing happens. Multi attack triggers and you can attack the same 2-3 things. Lastly, you can use your haste action to attack again, however, haste specifically says you can make "one weapon attack" so multi attack wouldn't trigger.

Does resistance stack with halving a spells damage on a success, I.E. Tiefling succeeding on a save against a fire ball let's say the damage was 20 does that mean half from success so 10, then half fire resistance 5 damage

We gonna get Wildshape Ranger at some point? Like take off spell casting and give it Moon Druidesque wild shape. Maybe at 4/5 to 1 instead of 3 to 1 CR Beasts. Not every game allows multiclassing now that it's optional and even with it you'll still only get CR 1. Maybe throw the naturalist over martial ranger builds a bone. Thanks for putting Misty Step on the list even though I'd rather see it X times per long rest with X being Wisdom mod.

People be wanting to put the eladrin into this build. I mean...yeah go for it...but by level 5 you'll be able to do the same thing, you'll just not be using a spell slot to do it. Which is fine...just within the other few elf races, you'd be getting a super good hiding ability, any wizard cantrip, or a bunch of other magic options than just one spell. That extra SS can be a lifesaver though, so who am I to judge. I just like extra action options

Sigh. I just want a few subclasses that don't use magic. Is a ranger that doesn't use magic such a burden to ask for? I mean, throw on some of the monster hunter manuevers, some system for making nature checks to gain advantage against foes, call it a day. The archetypal rangers are Legolas and Aragorn, where's the subclass for building THEM? But, I kind of have to accept that I'm mostly alone when I ask for LESS magic.

I mean, theoretically, in a world where magic thrives, magic users would be typically stronger. Unless, of course, you have stuff to prevent magical damage. But still, spell users would be more advantageous usually.
@gordongraham2064
@gordongraham2064 6 жыл бұрын
I dunno, what I like about non-magical classes is that they present a fantasy of resourcefulness rather than power. A wizard can just use their class features to kill a dragon, while a fighter needs to think very carefully about how to lure the beast to advantageous ground, how to trap it there, additional allies and resources to bring to their disposal, and so on. A nonmagical character often has to engage with the setting more completely than a magical character, just to survive. Plus, even in a world where there ARE magically infused hunters and trackers, there's got to be at least a few that go that route without using magic. 5e is nice in the way that the background system can make for diverse skillsets within classes, but outside of proficiency in Nature and Survival, there's no way to make an archery fighter who's dedicated to hunting and tracking in the same way a ranger is.
