Most classes are getting crossover spells from the wizard list but wizards are not getting any crossover spells or abilities.

Unless they've allowed up casting of hunter's mark I will 100% be homebrew buffing ranger at my table. What a joke

I love magazines... I hate starting over with nothing. I Will wait for a few years before I start buying this edition

What, no ranger?

Cool dice Price is a little more than I would like but I may put it on my wish list

The glitter dust spell could be made into an alchemist grenade item with a 20 ft. range or crossbow bolt for longer range.

Can't help but marvel at the diversity of perspectives woven into this conversation. It's truly enlightening.😚

Really worried about what they'll do with the Order of the Scribe once they get around to that subclass

Hunter's Mark can also be countered, dispelled, some stuff is straight up immune to low level spells, and any villain worth its intelligence score gets an uncommon amulet that makes them untargetable my divination magic (HM was divination in '14, not sure about the new edition). Would it have been so difficult to make a favored enemy feature that says you deal +PB damage on attacks against the last creature you hit? Make it concentration use if you're so scared it'll stack. I'm convinced wotc hates rangers, or deliberately tries to alienate people who like the fantasy of ranger. Don't worry though maybe in 4-6 years you can buy a full price book where they offer optional features to adjust the play experience.

If you want to very quickly homebrew some earth spells go borrow them from pathfinder2e. It has a lot of them and the numbers move over very easily honestly.

‘Hunters Mark or Bust!!!’ Is not the solution, that anyone wanted. And the fact that I’ve seen dozens of *simple, homebrew suggestions, since the Ranger vid dropped, makes me wonder what the heck Crawford and team were doing this whole time!? Just feels lazy and aimless; uninformed even…..

"Spellcasting is such a fundamental part of this class" So, they do NOT give 2 subclasses additional spells known lists, because they're not really magical. Wtf.

Did they not make Hunters Mark scale with spell slots? So like from the UA its 3d6 with a 5th level spell slot, that all become d10's that you can attack with 2 times per turn probably at range at advantage to the marked target, and you dont drop concentration from being hit AND it lasts 1hr. I mean it an investment, but there is potential pretty high damage. Have to see the spells first though

Ted, your final point is spot on: if I can make a better Ranger with BM Fighter/Scout Rogue multiclass, then the Ranger needs to be much better. Dungeon Coach fixed the Ranger a few years ago, or highlighted someone who fixed it.

My first run at fixing the new Ranger. Thoughts? 1st: Spellcasting. KEEP. 1st: Favored Enemy: Hunter’s Mark requires no concentration. Free castings equal to WIS modifier. 1d6 but will scale for Ranger. 2nd: Deft Explorer: 1 expertise plus 2 languages OR 2 expertise. 2nd: Fighting Style. KEEP. 5th: Extra Attack. KEEP. 6th: Roving. KEEP. 7th: Improved Favored Enemy: HM now does 2d6. 9th: Expertise. KEEP. 10th: Tireless. KEEP. 10th: Nature’s Veil. Love the new one, move to an earlier level. 14th: Precise Hunter. KEEP but move to an earlier level. 17th: Superior Favored Enemy: HM now does 3d6. 18th: Feral Senses. KEEP, I suppose. 19th: Epic Boon. 20th: Extra Attack (3rd) or ability to Wild Shape?

2024 PHB is so much power creep. Gives me the vibes of Magic: the Gathering's modus operandi.

i feel like they're trying to make the ranger into a stand-in for the avenger as well as being a heavily nerfed 3.5 ranger I kinda think an animal companion should be baseline with an optional rule to replace it

A few things to note about Vecnas 3 reactions. Open hand monks can completely shut that part of his statblock down with a flurry of blows. Subtle Spell still bypasses his counterspell like it would a normal spell. And players can hold an attack or spell with the triggering action being vecnas reaction to bypass his three reactions.

I love blur that would be a great choice f it meets the criteria.

Haven't they completely gotten rid of blade singer? Like no plans of bringing it back in the future

So Far What dissapoints me Barberians : Brutal strike doesnt stack with wreckless attack. monsters hit much harder at that level so having you lose advantage sucks . Fix: keep the advantage make the d10 an option and at level 13 make a new option so you can roll a third d20 with the advantage similar to Elven accuracy ! why : THAT is an incentive to stick with barbarians ! and not just take two levels like most barbarian builds . they either take 2 or 5 max . Druids : No casting in Wildshape until level 18 (Except a very small list for Moon) which is 18 levels of you not having half your class. Fix: When you cast a spell in wild shape expend a use of wildshape until level 18 you dont need to do that why : the level 5 feature that let you expend a spell slot to gain a use of wildshape . So at later levels you want to use big level spells you can use spell slots to do that when low level spells arent that useful Rogue : Sneak attack its just low damage the cunning strike is cool but it doesnt really benfit the rougue its more like a teamlay option which is cool but the rogue need to Do this. Fix: when you use Sneak attack against a target roll an additional d6 for each condtion the target has (and that include surprise) . but change it to work only once until the start on your next turn and on opportunity attacks only. why : Now the rogue can keep on with damage and can use thier own cool cunning strikes as a set up . and no more shenanigans like hasted hold a turn and attack with held action to keep up with damage. Ranger: If you track a creature for more than 10 minutes you can cast hunter's mark without expending a spell slot but cant transfer it to another creature. and Just make huntersmark not using concentration at level 5 or 11 at most. for me its 5 and level 11 is advantage on hunter mark target . why : this makes the flavor and the narrative of the ranger JUST POP the one who understand and study their pray !!! its is beyond stupid to make your whole class stuff focus on a concentration spell . that just contradict with all your high level exciting spells . THIS IS BEYOND DUMB but making no concentration at level 1 is a ripe for multiclass abuse dips all the time. so At least its an insintive to stick with ranger and if you multiclassed with a martial you dont feel like you waisted your level 5 level (Each martial should have a thing on level 5)

I'm sorry but at this point I feel like they should give a massive discount or even a credit towards buying the new books if you already owned Tasha's cauldron of everything

Just make hunter's mark similar to vow of emnity, number of uses per day equal to your prof mod, bonus action, lasts a minute and when the target dies you can use a bonus action to transfer the mark to another target. Maybe do something cool like add wisdom mod to damage once you reach lvl 7 or 10

53:55 this is just the template.... You get all the subclass stuff of your choice....

One of the most loved classes. And they completely phoned it in. The other 11 classes are all demonstrably better. Some exceptionally so. Ranger is just bad. Bad, bad, bad. In too many ways to list. Nothing about this is "new" or "fun". It will be the only class in the new book that I won't have any interest in. Why do they seem to hate Ranger so much?

If hex mark is all about augmenting spell benefits. Hunter's mark should be all about benefits to the marshall and spell sides. Certain benefits to the marshall side could be like getting more than 1d6 like 2d6 or 3d6 before it becomes 1d10.

If hex mark is all about augmenting spell

The easiest and simplest fix to this without going under the hood too much is to make Hunter's Mark not require concentration for Rangers. Then change Relentless Hunter to improve Hunter's Mark so it does a d8 as an intermediary before reaching Foe Slayer to get a d10. I'd also add the Hunter's Lore feature from Hunter to base Ranger with their Hunter's Mark. And for Hunter, change that feature to just doing more damage. Perhaps, even making the targeted creature vulnerable to their damage. These changes would give them a general damage bump, it would overall enable the Ranger to improve the damage effectiveness of their group and if the Ranger wanted more damage output, their concentration is now free for spells to help with that.

The only thing that would make sense is if they have changed hunters mark scales damage with spell level or level and the capstone is changing 3d6 or 4d6 to 3d10 or 4d10... But why not speak about this changes here? I don't know...

Still going to play my own homebrewed Ranger / Gloomstalker. Not touching this "remake". Jesus christ.

I don't think you were being negative, you were expressing your feelings and you are right to be critical. Hopefully there are updates and changes to alot of these classes.

Ranger (base class) is by far the biggest disappointment so far

Just finished treants video it got me really excited. Just starting your video but your thumbnail and opening I'm wondering what you can be upset about. 26:16 proceeds to wine about all the improvements...

Just a reminder that the last time we saw the Hunter's Mark spell in play test it was changed to where it would be the first time that you hit on a turn so it is not doing damage on every single hit

I'd argue that if Earth based spells should get anything extra, it should be forcefully moving or shunting characters around. That way you'd be controlling the battlefield both figuratively AND literally.

Anyone consider that they want to get rid of Ranger, so why change it as much as all of the other classes? JAT.

I honestly hope they expand the ways to get exhaustion like spells that have an option to increase in power for a level. Monsters that can impose exhaustion and other things.

05:12 the price is normalized to 50 dollars for an ultimate license, permanently, and even cheaper now at around $40 bucks now until 07-11-24. 2014 was before DnD5e and Fantasy Grounds was still rather primative then. The features vs the price is much more worth the value now.

Wotc bungles the ranger class once again. Such a shock… I have been playing D&D for over 4o years. The best version of the ranger IMO is the ranger class in Castles & Crusades rpg.

Thank you so much for calling out Jeremy's BS comments about the Ranger having new features. It just rubs me the wrong way how he treats their audience as being stupid to not notice all of the Tasha's features.

Don’t support Wotc. Play better systems. And if the 5e ecosystem is so important Tales of the Valiant is much better

I will hold my final judgment until I see the 2024 Hunters Mark spell. We had a UA version of the spell where damage scaled. For example, if Hunters Mark would give you a sneak attack once per turn or even once per casting that would make a great difference.

I do agree, Rangers should have gotten either concentration free and or free action (applies Hunter's Mark on the first hit of a round) Hunter's Mark at level 10 Tireless should have been a level 6 feature and Roving level 2, but I think they're better than you're giving them credit for.

eath eruption: cast: 1 action/instant, range 120, 20'sphere, save: con for half damage, damgae: 6d6 bludgeoning the con save is because everyone in range gets peppered with lumps of earth, dropped the damage fromfirball as it bypases rouge and barb abilities

That’s what generates ill will. Why did he say it was completely new? If he had said “We received excellent feedback from the optional features in Tasha’s, so we decided to adopt them and fine-tune them.” Still not fantastic, but better than 2014 PHB, and he wouldn’t have raised expectations by saying it’s a brand new class.

The new ranger reminds me of a Bethesda game, where they had a lot of potential, but royally screwed it up, and now the player base has to fix it for them 😂
