Hey all! As promised, here is the update to my Alternate Ranger. As this class has been around for almost 3 years now, the changes aren't super significant. The biggest ones have been the changes to Favored Foe and Foe Slayer.

I've also included the Patron-exclusive Primeval Guardian Archetype!

I hope to have the Alternate Ranger: Expanded updated to 3.8.0 at some point later this week (so please don't keep asking me when it'll be updated)

As always, I'm open to any constructive feedback you may have!

Alternate Ranger v3.8.0

  • Wilderness Expertise // Second Expertise/Language moved up to 9th level.
  • Fighting Style // Cut Protection. Added Mountaineer (NEW) and Thrown Weapon Fighting. Adjusted Featherweight Fighting and Versatile Fighting.
  • Favored Foe // Reworked to scale based on Ranger level (not spell slot). Free WIS mod uses per rest (then spell slots). Damage scaling now lines up with duration scaling.
  • Adaptable // NEW

Alternate Ranger by laserllama

As the graying man made his way through the underbrush of the forest his faded green cloak made him nearly invisible. The monstrously large troll he had been stalking through the night had finally stopped to rest. As the great brute lay down to sleep, the silent green shape emerged from the trees to snuff out the life of the hideous monster.
