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.
- Favored enemy has foe slayer baked in and natural explorer gives individual buffs based on terrain.
- The Ranger gains a few additonal proficiencies and starting equipment options.
- The Ranger is now a Preparation Caster and can ritual cast.
- Primeval Awareness no longer requires a spell slot to use.
- Land's Stride also gives extra 5 feet walking speed and bonus action dash.
- Hide in Plain Sight and vanish are rolled up into one ability.
- The Ranger gains an action surge at level 14 that can give you an extra action or bonus action instead of the Vanish ability.
- Feral senses now gives limited blind sight and tremor sense.
- Foe Slayer now works on all enemies and is doubled for favored enemies.

Beginning at 1st level, you have significant experience studying, tracking, hunting, and even talking to a certain type of enemy.
Choose a 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.
Additionally once on each of your turns, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the attack roll or the damage roll of an attack you make against one of your favored enemies. You can choose to use this feature before or after the roll, but before any effects of the roll are applied.
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.
Additionally you gain a passive benefit based on your chosen terrain
- Artic: You gain resistance to Cold damage.
- Coast: You gain a swim speed equal to your walking speed and can hold your breath for an hour.
- Desert: You have resistance to Fire Damage.
- Forest: You become proficient in two ranger skills and gain expertise in 1 ranger skill or tool you are proficient in.
- Grassland: Your base walking speed increases by five feet and you cast Longstrider at will without expending a spell slot. You can also cast either Jump or Zephyr Strike once without expending a spell slot. You regain expended uses on a short or long rest.
- Mountain: You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed and can cast either Feather Fall or Spiderclimb, once without expending a spell slot. You regain expended uses on a short or long rest.
- Swamp: You gain resistance to Posion damage and have advantage on saving throws against poison and disease.
- Underdark: You can cast Darkvision at will without expending a spell slot. You can also cast either Blindness/Deafness or Darkness once without expending a spell slot. You regain expended uses on a short or long rest.
While traveling for an hour or more in your favored terrain, you gain the following benefits:
- Difficult terrain doesn’t slow your group’s travel.
- Your group can’t become lost except by magical means.
- Even when you are engaged in another activity while traveling (such as foraging, navigating, or tracking), you remain alert to danger.
- If you are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a normal pace.
- When you forage, you find twice as much food as you normally would.
- While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact number, their sizes, and how long ago they passed through the area.
You choose additional favored terrain types at 6th and 10th level.
At 20th level any terrain you spend a least one hour in is considered a favored terrain to you and you gain all the associated benefits while in the terrain.
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.
Blind Fighting
Being unable to see a creature doesn’t impose disadvantage on your attack rolls against it, provided the creature isn’t hidden from you.
Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
Druidic Warrior
You learn two cantrips of your choice from the druid spell list. They count as ranger spells for you, and Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for them. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of these cantrips with another cantrip from the druid spell list.
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 make two weapon attacks as a bonus action instead of one and add your ability modifier to one of the damage rolls of the 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
Ritual Casting
You can cast a ranger spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use a druidic focus (see the Adventuring Gear section) as a spellcasting focus for your ranger spells.
Primeval Mysticism
Starting at 2nd level, you can focus your awareness through the interconnections of nature: When you reach certain levels in this class, you gain access to the spells listed for that level in the Primeval Mysticism Spells table. Once you gain access to one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day.
Primeval Mysticism Spells
| Ranger Level | Spell |
|---|---|
| 3rd | Detect Magic, Speak with Animals |
| 5th | Beast Sense, Locate Animals or Plants |
| 9th | Speak with Plants |
| 13th | Locate Creature |
| 17th | Commune with Nature |
You can cast each of these spells once without expending a spell slot. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest. If you later replace any of these spells, you must replace them with a spell from the ranger spell list of the same level.
Ranger Archetype
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you strive to emulate: the Beast Master or Hunter that are 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.
Primal 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 and their last visited location, 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.
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.
Additionally once on each of your turns, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the attack roll or the damage roll of an attack you make against one of your favored enemies. You can choose to use this feature before or after the roll, but before any effects of the roll are applied.
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.
Hunter's Instincts
Starting at 8th level, with every enemy you dispatch your survival skills are further honed.
On your turn, immediately after you incapacitate or reduce a creature to 0 hit points you can gain one of the following passive benefits:
- Until the start of your next turn, your movement speed is doubled and difficult terrain costs you no extra movement.
- Until the start of your next turn, when any creature attacks you their first attack roll is made at disadvantage and all opportunity attacks made against you have disadvantage.
- Until the start of your next turn, you gain temporary hit points equal to half your ranger level and your next dexterity saving throw is made with advantage.
- If no other creature is within 10 feet of you, you can attempt to make a dexterity (stealth) check to hide provided that you are not out in the open and do not move more than a third of your movement speed.
- You can give another creature advantage on their next attack if they are within 60 feet of you and they do not have disadvantage on the attack. Additionally the attack is considered a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.
You can only have one passive benefit active at a time and can only activate it once per turn.
Conceal and Vanish
Starting at 10th level, you become further skilled in the art of concealment and non-detection. You can’t be tracked by nonmagical means, unless you choose to leave a trail and have advantage on Dexterity (stealth) checks while in your favored terrain.
Additionally, you can use a bonus action to magically become invisible, along with any equipment you are wearing or carrying, for 1 minute. You become visible if you attack or cast a spell that deals damage to a creature and the creature survives the damage from the attack or spell.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Druidic Arcanum
Your connection to the natural and spiritual world deepens your magical abilities. You learn one druid cantrip of your choice and are granted a druidic boon called an arcanum. Choose one 5th-level or 6th-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 or 6th 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.
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.
Additionally once on each of your turns, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the attack roll or the damage roll of an attack you make against one of your favored enemies. You can choose to use this feature before or after the roll, but before any effects of the roll are applied.
Natural Senses
At 18th level, you gain a blindsight with a range of 15 feet and tremorsense of 30 feet, if you are in your favored terrain your blindsight has a range of 30 feet and your tremorsense has a range of 60 feet.
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 your attack roll or damage roll bonus is doubled and after a long rest you can exchange one favored enemy type for another one of your choice.
Tweaked Ranger Conclaves
Tweaked Beast Master
The Beast Master archetype embodies a friendship between the civilized races and the beasts of the wild. United in focus, beast and ranger fight the monsters that threaten civilization and the wilderness alike.
Beast Master Features
| Ranger Level | Features |
|---|---|
| 3rd | Beast Master Magic, Ranger's Companion, Wild Bond |
| 7th | Well Trained |
| 11th | Beastial Fury |
| 15th | Wild Soul |
Beast Master Spells
When you reach certain levels in this class, you gain access to the spells listed for that level in the Beast Master Spells table. Once you gain access to one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the ranger spell list, the spell is nonetheless a ranger spell for you.
Beast Master Spells
| Ranger Level | Spell |
|---|---|
| 3rd | Animal Friendship |
| 5th | Find Steed |
| 9th | Conjure Animals |
| 13th | Mordenkainen’s Faithful Hound |
| 17th | Awaken |
Ranger's Companion
At 3rd level, you gain a beast companion that accompanies you on your adventures and is trained to fight alongside you. Choose a beast that is no larger than Medium and that has a challenge rating of 1/2 or lower, at level 7 the beast can be of CR level 1 or lower, at level 11 the beast can be of CR level 2 or lower, and at level 15 your creature can be of beast that is no larger than Large and has a CR of 3 or lower.
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. While traveling through your favored terrain with only the beast, you can move stealthily at a normal pace.
Wild Bond
Starting at 3rd level as a bonus action, you can expend one spell slot to regain 1 d10 hit points per level of the spell slot expended for your beast if it’s within 30 feet of you. At 11th 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.
Well Trained
Starting at 7th level, when an enemy attempts to attack you or an ally you can see, you can use your reaction to command your beast to move up to half it's movement speed and attack the enemy.
If the beast’s attack is successful the enemy misses that attack roll. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your wisdom modifier and regain all expended uses on a long rest.
In addition, the beast's attacks now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
Beastial Fury
Starting at 11th 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.
Wild Soul
Beginning at 15th level, when you cast a spell targeting yourself, you can also affect your beast companion with the spell if the beast is within 60 feet of you.
Additionally your beast has advantage against being charmed or frightened and any spell you cast that would fail if cast on a creature with an intelligence higher than 4, succeeds on your beast companion regardless of it's intelligence score.
Tweaked Hunter
Emulating the Hunter archetype means accepting your place as a bulwark between civilization and the terrors of the wilderness. As you walk the Hunter’s path, you learn specialized techniques for fighting the threats you face, from rampaging ogres and hordes of orcs to towering giants and terrifying dragons.
