By request: Workshopping another Ranger

[Bjarkmundur]

I'm starting to think you kill a lot of animal companions in your campaigns, Kane0.

It's not so much the difference that's the issue, it's the fact that a beastmaster without a beast is pretty much just as effective as the hunter :/
Like he said, the beast deals seven points of damage. And if you look a the current table (far left) if you remove 7 damage from the Beastmaster, you get the same numbers as the Hunter. That's just not cool, in any way shape or form.

A frenzying raging barbarian at level 3 does stupid amount of damage i.e. 22? 18 is not that bad.

Frenzy barbarian? Is that one of those non-existing builds, like Hexblade, Mystic and Lore Wizard?

Looking at the context, 22 is an outlier. And yes, I know the Base Damage document is unfinished, I've been busy.

P.S. Did you guys even read what I wrote below the tables in the document?

EDIT: I'm off to watch a movie with the missus before bed. I hope that over the last few hours we've managed to change the Ranger to the better. <3
