    Starting a pathfinder 2e campaign in a few weeks. It really is astonishing how good Ranger is in this system, and how effortless it seems to be compared to DnD 5e.

    Pf2e rangers have no magic at all. They’re a martial class vaguely on par with a fighter, with excellent survival skills. They have a unique ability to pick a target they can see or are tracking as their prey, and they get huge bonuses against their prey.

    That’s it. It’s an excellent class, doesn’t need these 50 different attempts and houserules to fix it.

      A wilderness fighter who doesn’t use magic?

      Ludicrous.

      Next thing you know they’ll be smoking pipes and escorting Halflings to volcanoes.

      They can have focus spells, my player enjoys gravity weapon a lot. But agreed the different subclasses all play very well and let you feel like you’re a valuable asset to the team.
