To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher.

For instance, when you reach 5th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.\r\nAdditionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the ranger spells you know and replace it with another spell from the ranger spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.\r\n\r\n[b]Spellcasting Ability[\/b]\r\nWisdom is your spellcasting ability for your ranger spells, since your magic draws on your attunement to nature.

You gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with weapon attacks against creatures of the chosen type. Additionally, you have advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to track your favored enemies, as well as on Intelligence checks to recall information about them.\r\n\r\nWhen you gain this feature, you also learn one language of your choice, typically one spoken by your favored enemy or creatures associated with it. However, you are free to pick any language you wish to learn.\r\n\r\n[b]Natural Explorer[\/b]\r\nYou are a master of navigating the natural world, and you react with swift and decisive action when attacked. This grants you the following benefits:\r\n\r\n\u2022 You ignore difficult terrain.\r\n\r\n\u2022 You have advantage on initiative rolls.\r\n\r\n\u2022 On your first turn during combat, you have advantage on attack rolls against creatures that have not yet acted.\r\n\r\nIn addition, you are skilled at navigating the wilderness. You gain the following benefits when traveling for an hour or more:\r\n\r\n\u2022 Difficult terrain doesn\u2019t slow your group\u2019s travel.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Your group can\u2019t become lost except by magical means.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Even when you are engaged in another activity while traveling (such as foraging, navigating, or tracking), you remain alert to danger.\r\n\r\n\u2022 If you are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a normal pace.\r\n\r\n\u2022 When you forage, you find twice as much food as you normally would.\r\n\r\n\u2022 While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact number, their sizes, and how long ago they passed through the area.\r\n\r\n[b]Fighting Style[\/b]\r\nAt 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.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Archery\r\nYou gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged weapons.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Close Quarters Shooter (UA)\r\nWhen making a ranged attack while you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature, you do not have disadvantage on the attack roll. Your ranged attacks ignore half cover and three-quarters cover against targets within 30 feet of you. You have a +1 bonus to attack rolls on ranged attacks.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Defense\r\nWhile you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Dueling\r\nWhen you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Mariner (UA)\r\nAs long as you not wearing heavy armor or using a shield, you have a swimming speed and a climbing speed equal to your normal speed, and you gain a +1 bonus to armor class.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Tunnel Fighter (UA)\r\nAs a bonus action, you can enter a defensive stance that lasts until the start of your next turn. While in your defensive stance, you can make opportunity attacks without using your reaction, and you can use your reaction to make a melee attack against a creature that moves more than 5 feet while within your reach.\r\n\r\n\u2022 Two-Weapon Fighting\r\nWhen you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.\r\n\r\n[b]Primeval Awareness[\/b]\r\nBeginning at 3rd level, your mastery of ranger lore allows you to establish a powerful link to beasts and to the land around you.\r\nYou have an innate ability to communicate with beasts, and they recognize you as a kindred spirit. Through sounds and gestures, you can communicate simple ideas to a beast as an action, and can read its basic mood and intent. You learn its emotional state, whether it is affected by magic of any sort, its short-term needs (such as food or safety), and actions you can take (if any) to persuade it to not attack.\r\nYou cannot use this ability against a creature that you have attacked within the past 10 minutes.\r\nAdditionally, you can attune your senses to determine if any of your favored enemies lurk nearby. By spending 1 uninterrupted minute in concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell), you can sense whether any of your favored enemies are present within 5 miles of you. This feature reveals which of your favored enemies are present, their numbers, and the creatures\u2019 general direction and distance (in miles) from you.\r\nIf there are multiple groups of your favored enemies within range, you learn this information for each group.\r\n\r\n[b]Ability Score Improvement[\/b]\r\nWhen 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.\r\n\r\n[b]Greater Favored Enemy[\/b]\r\nAt 6th level, you are ready to hunt even deadlier game. Choose a type of greater favored enemy: aberrations, celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fiends, or giants. You gain all the benefits against this chosen enemy that you normally gain against your favored enemy, including an additional language. Your bonus to damage rolls against all your favored enemies increases to +4.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, you have advantage on saving throws against the spells and abilities used by a greater favored enemy.\r\n\r\n[b]Fleet of Foot[\/b]\r\nBeginning at 8th level, you can use the Dash action as a bonus action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Hide in Plain Sight[\/b]\r\nStarting at 10th level, you can remain perfectly still for long periods of time to set up ambushes.\r\nWhen you attempt to hide on your turn, you can opt to not move on that turn. If you avoid moving, creatures that attempt to detect you take a \u221210 penalty to their Wisdom (Perception) checks until the start of your next turn. You lose this benefit if you move or fall prone, either voluntarily or because of some external effect. You are still automatically detected if any effect or action causes you to no longer be hidden.\r\nIf you are still hidden on your next turn, you can continue to remain motionless and gain this benefit until you are detected.\r\n\r\n[b]Vanish[\/b]\r\nStarting at 14th level, you can use the Hide action as a bonus action on your turn. Also, you can't be tracked by nonmagical means, unless you choose to leave a trail.\r\n\r\n[b]Feral Senses[\/b]\r\nAt 18th level, you gain preternatural senses that help you fight creatures you can't see. When you attack a creature you can't see, your inability to see it doesn't impose disadvantage on your attack rolls against it.\r\nYou are also aware of the location of any invisible creature within 30 feet of you, provided that the creature isn't hidden from you and you aren't blinded or deafened.\r\n\r\n[b]Foe Slayer[\/b]\r\nAt 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 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.","subclasses":"[b]Animal Companion[\/b]\r\nAt 3rd level, you learn to use your magic to create a powerful bond with a creature of the natural world.\r\nWith 8 hours of work and the expenditure of gp worth of rare herbs and fine food, you call forth an animal from the wilderness to serve as your faithful companion. You must select a creature that could be mounted by character of your size.For a small character a price will be 100gp, for a medium 150gp, for a large 250gp. Your DM might pick one of these animals for you, based on the surrounding terrain and on what types of creatures would logically be present in the area.\r\nAt the end of the 8 hours, your animal companion appears and gains all the benefits of your Companion\u2019s Bond ability. You can have only one animal companion at a time.\r\nIf your animal companion is ever slain, the magical bond you share allows you to return it to life. With 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 50(75, 125) gp worth of rare herbs and fine food, you call forth your companion\u2019s spirit and use your magic to create a new body forit. You can return an animal companion to life in this manner even if you do not possess any part of its body.\r\nIf you use this ability to return a former animal companion to life while you have a current animal companion, your current companion leaves you and is replaced by the restored companion.\r\n\r\n[b]Companion's Bond[\/b]\r\nYour animal companion gains a variety of benefits while it is linked to you.\r\nThe animal companion loses its Multiattack action, if it has one.\r\nThe companion obeys your commands as best it can. It rolls for initiative like any other creature, but you determine its actions, decisions, attitudes, and so on. If you are incapacitated or absent, your companion acts on its own.\r\nWhen using your Natural Explorer feature, you and your animal companion can both move stealthily at a normal pace.\r\nYour animal companion has abilities and game statistics determined in part by your level. Your companion uses your proficiency bonus rather than its own. In addition to the areas where it normally uses its proficiency bonus, an animal companion also adds its proficiency bonus to its AC and to its damage rolls.\r\nYour animal companion gains proficiency in two skills of your choice. It also becomes proficient with all saving throws.\r\nFor each level you gain after 3rd, your animal companion gains an additional hit die and increases its hit points accordingly.\r\nWhenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement class feature, your companion\u2019s abilities also improve. Your companion can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or it can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, your companion can\u2019t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature unless its description specifies otherwise.\r\nYour companion shares your alignment, and has a personality trait and a flaw that you can roll for or select from the tables below. Your companion shares your ideal, and its bond is always, \u201cThe ranger who travels with me is a beloved companion for whom I would gladly give my life.\u201d\r\nYour animal companion gains the benefits of your Favored Enemy feature, and of your Greater Favored Enemy feature when you gain that feature at 6th level.

You have advantage on saving throws made to avoid falling off your mount. If you fall off your mount and descend no more than 10 feet, you can land on your feet if you\u2019re not incapacitated.\r\nFinally, mounting or dismounting a creature costs you only 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.\r\nWhen you mount your beast you take your initiative and your beast movement speed. You can choose who make an attack action you or your beast.\r\nBorn to the Saddle only can be used in light and medium armor.\r\n\r\n[b]Multi-attack[\/b]\r\nStarting at 3rd level, you can command to your beast to attack with you. You and your beast make an attack action.\r\nYou and your beast must be at a distance 5ft apart, or you should mount the beast.\r\nOnce you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again. Starting at 17th level, you can use it twice before a rest, but only once on the same turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\nBeginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Warding Maneuver[\/b]\r\nAt 7th level, you learn to fend off strikes directed at you, your mount, or other creatures nearby. If you or a creature you can see within 5 feet of you is hit by an attack, you can roll 1d8 as a reaction if you're wielding a melee weapon or a shield. Roll the die, and add the number rolled to the target's AC against that attack. If the attack still hits, the target has resistance against the attack's damage.\r\nYou can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Mounted Fury[\/b]\r\nAt 11 level when you make an attack action as a bonus action your beast can make an single attack. When your beast make an attack action you can make a single attack. You mast be mounted, or be 5ft near your beast to use this feature.\r\n[br]\r\nIn addition when you command your beast companion to make an Attack action, the beast can make two attacks, or it can take the Multiattack action.\r\n\r\n[b]Share Spells[\/b]\r\nBeginning 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 30 feet of you.\r\n\r\n","tabledata":"","tags":"Ranger, HB, class","isShared":"on","templateId":"25","blockId":"299041","world":""}
