>##### HELLO
> I made this "alternate" version of the Ranger for the few of us, who rather enjoy the Player's Handbook version, but find it could use a few tweaks here or there (Hence the Name). It's essentially the PHB Ranger but with improvements, buffs, or reworks to every ranger class feature.
>
> All these rules and abilities are optional, so if there is a feature or ability you like, but want to mostly keep to the PHB ask your DM if you can exchange the feat/abilites that you like and keep the rest as is. The balance may be off so feel free to tweak or customize this for however best works for you and your DM.

> The following are some of the changes and abilities added to the Ranger:
>
> * Almost all the ranger's base class abilites are either buffed or reworked.
> * The Ranger is now a Preparation Caster.
> * The Ranger can used smites that are sligtly less powerful than the paladin but can be ranged. 
> * Two optional abilities are added to the class, that you can use as is or replace a base class feature with.
> * Additionally there are some extra optional rules or abilites at the end of the document, for further customization.

### Wild Explorer
You are particularly familiar with one type of natural environment and are adept at traveling and surviving in such regions.

Choose one type of favored terrain: **arctic, coast, desert, forest, grassland, mountain, swamp, or the Underdark**. When you make an Intelligence or Wisdom check related to your favored terrain, your proficiency bonus is doubled if you are using a skill that you’re proficient in.

### Fighting Style
At 2nd level, you adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can’t take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

## Archery
You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged weapons.
## Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
## Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.
## Two-Weapon Fighting
When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.

### Spellcasting
By the time you reach 2nd level, you have learned to use the magical essence of nature to cast spells, much as a druid does. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the Spells Listing for the ranger spell list.

## Preparing and Casting Spells

The Ranger table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your Ranger spells. To cast one of your Ranger spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

You prepare the list of Ranger spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Ranger spell list. When you do so, choose a number of ranger spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + half your ranger level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

For example, if you are a 5th-level ranger, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 14, your list of prepared spells can include four spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or a 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn’t remove it from your list of prepared spells.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of ranger spells requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

## Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your ranger spells, since your magic draws on your attunement to nature. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a ranger spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

**Spell save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

**Spell attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

### Ranger Archetype
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you strive to emulate: the Hunter that is detailed at the end of the class description or one from another source. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 11th, and 15th level.

### Primeval Awareness
Beginning at 3rd level, you can use your bonus action to focus your awareness on the region around you. For 10 minutes, you can sense whether the following types of creatures are present within 1 mile of you (or within up to 6 miles if you are in your favored terrain): aberrations, celestials, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, and undead or if it’s a creature of your favored enemy type. You know the general number of the creature types when you use this ability.

If the creature is a favored enemy, you know their general threat level (what their CR or level they are) and the general direction they are, relative to you.
 
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier. When you finish a long rest, you regain all expended uses.

### Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

### Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

\pagebreakNum

### Primal Smites
At 5th level, once per turn when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can expend a ranger spell slot to deal an extra 1d6 force damage to the target, plus another 1d6 per level of the spell slot to a maximum of 6d6. If the target is a creature type of your favored enemy, all damage dice from your *Primal Smites* become 1d8 instead of 1d6.

Additionally when you use your *primal smite*, if you or the target are in your favored terrain, you magically restrain the target if it's of huge or smaller size with a magical environmental effect if it fails a strength save against you’re spell save DC. It is restrained in this way until the start of your next turn.

### Favored Foe
At 6th level, you have significant experience studying, tracking, hunting, and even talking to a certain type of enemy.

Choose an additional type of favored enemy: **aberrations, beasts, celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, giants, monstrosities, oozes, plants, or undead.** Alternatively, you can select two races of humanoid (such as gnolls and orcs) as favored enemies.

You have advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to track your favored enemies, as well as on Intelligence checks to recall information about them.

When you gain this feature, you also learn one language of your choice that is spoken by your favored enemies, if they speak one at all.

You choose one additional favored enemy, as well as an associated language, at 14th level. As you gain levels, your choices should reflect the types of monsters you have encountered on your adventures.

### Strider of the Land
Starting at 8th level, your walking speed increases by 5 feet, you can dash as a bonus action and moving through nonmagical difficult terrain costs you no extra movement.

You can pass through nonmagical plants without being slowed by them and without taking damage from them if they have thorns, spines, or a similar hazard.

In addition, you have advantage on saving throws against plants that are magically created or manipulated to impede movement, such those created by the entangle spell.

### Vanish in Plain Sight
Starting at 10th level, you can you can use the Hide actions as a bonus action on your turn and you can’t be tracked by nonmagical means, unless you choose to leave a trail.

Additionally, you can spend 1 minute creating camouflage for yourself. You must have access to fresh mud, dirt, plants, soot, and other naturally occurring materials with which to create your camouflage. If you are in your favored terrain it only takes you six seconds to camouflage yourself, you require only a handful of naturally occurring material, and you have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made in this state.

Once you are camouflaged in this way, you can try to hide by pressing yourself up against a solid surface, such as a tree or wall, that is at least as tall and wide as you are. You gain a +10 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) checks as long as you move at half-speed or less. Once you move faster than half your walking speed or take an action or a reaction, you must camouflage yourself again to gain this benefit.

If you are in your favored terrain it only takes you an action to camouflage yourself, you require only a handful of naturally occurring material, you have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made while camouflaged in addition to your initial +10 bonus, and you can move at your normal walking speed without having to camouflage again, provided you take no actions or reactions and use the hide bonus action at the end of each turn while camouflaged.

### Druidic Arcanum
Starting at 14th level, your connection to the natural and spiritual world grants you a druidic boon called an arcanum. Choose one 5th-level, 6th-level or 7th-level spell from the druid spell list as this arcanum. After you gain a level in this class or finish a long rest you can exchange the druid spell for another one of 5th, 6th, or 7th level.

You can cast your arcanum spell once without expending a spell slot. You must finish a long rest before you can do so again.

### Favored Foe
At 14th level, you have significant experience studying, tracking, hunting, and even talking to a certain type of enemy.

You have advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to track your favored enemies, as well as on Intelligence checks to recall information about them.

When you gain this feature, you also learn one language of your choice that is spoken by your favored enemies, if they speak one at all.

### Foe Hunter
At 20th level, you become an unparalleled hunter of your enemies. Once on each of your turns, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the attack roll or the damage roll of any attack you make. You can choose to use this feature before or after the roll, but before any effects of the roll are applied.

If the target is one of your favored enemies you attack roll or damage roll bonus is doubled.

Add your proficiency bonus to the beast’s AC, attack rolls, and damage rolls, as well as to any saving throws and skills it is proficient in. Its hit point maximum equals the hit point number in its stat block plus your ranger level or fives times your ranger level, whichever is higher. Like any creature, it can spend Hit Dice during a short rest to regain hit points.

The beast obeys your commands as best as it can. It takes its turn on your initiative. On your turn, you can verbally command the beast where to move (no action required by you). You can use your bonus action to verbally command it to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or Help action. If you don't issue a command, the beast takes the Dodge action. Once you have the Extra Attack feature, your beast can make one of the attacks when you take the Attack action provided it's within range of the target you are attacking.

If you are incapacitated or absent, the beast acts on its own, focusing on protecting you and itself. The beast never requires your command to use its reaction, such as when making an opportunity attack.

At 20th level, the range extends to 60 feet. Additionally, any spell to revive your beast requires no material components.

If the beast dies, you expel it from your service, or is seperated from you, you can obtain a new companion by spending 1 hour magically bonding with a beast that isn’t hostile to you and that meets the requirements. If the beast is a favored foe or in your favored terrain it only takes 10 minutes to bond to it.

## Beastial Fury
Starting at 7th level, when you command your beast companion to take the Attack action, the beast can make two attacks, or it can take the Multiattack action if it has that action.

In addition, the beast's attacks now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

## Share Spells
Beginning at 11th level, when you cast a spell targeting yourself, you can also affect your beast companion with the spell if the beast is within 30 feet of you. At 20th level the range extends to 60 feet.

## Savage Protection
Beginning at 15th level, any spell that would fail if cast on a creature with an intelligence higher than 4, suceed on your beast companion regardless of it's intelligence score and in comabt you can add your wisdom modifier to one attack or damage roll made by your beast on it's turn.

When an enemy attempts to attack you or an ally you can see, you can use your reaction to command your beast to attack the enemy if your beast companion is within attacking range. If the beast’s attack is successful the enemy misses that attack roll.

**Hive Mind Familiar**- When you use your *scuttling eyes* you can use your swarm to cast the *Find Familiar* spell without expending a spell slot. It uses the chosen forms stats unless any of the *Scuttling eyes* stats are higher. 
Additionally if the familiar takes damage it can use it's reaction to either explode forcing everyone in a 15 foot radius of it to make a dexterity save or take 5d6 force damage on a failure or half as much on a success **or** alternatively it casts the *Conjures Animals* spell in the space it originally occupied with the conjured animals being all of size small or smaller beasts that are hostile to the creatures who originally attacked the familiar.

Once you use this ability, you can not so again until you finsih a short or long rest.

**Form of the Masses**- You can cast either *Arcane Hand*, *Blur*, or *Mirror Image* spell once without expending a spell slot. When you cast any of the spells in this way, the forms take that of swarming nature spirits.

Once you use this ability you can not do so again, until you finish a short or long rest.
