Fingers crossed!Edit: and the warlock will be rejected. I am totally sure. I'd bet that they also backpaddle.

I think they worry that people will reject the idea of a whole volley with a single action without magic, especially if it doesn’t consume a prohibitive amount of ammo.
You can fluff it I think. Something like you grab anything nearby for use as an arrow. Realistically most rangers will not be targeting that many enemies most if the time.I think they worry that people will reject the idea of a whole volley with a single action without magic, especially if it doesn’t consume a prohibitive amount of ammo.
I’m a singer in the choir you’re preaching to. I just think WotC is worried that the broader player base won’t accept such things without magic.You can fluff it I think.

that and Conjure Barrag/Volley don't match Primal but have to be in due to backwards compartibility.I’m a singer in the choir you’re preaching to. I just think WotC is worried that the broader player base won’t accept such things without magic.
Rangers literally already have those other things. You're complaining about the Ranger as if they don't have magic arrow spells, and an affinity with nature and animals.My point is that WOTC is trying to update the ranger without creating anything despite the fact that they know they screwed up the initial ranger design.
Rather than:
They are just reusing what they made in2024 and Tasha's. The ranger had ranged ranged weapon buff spells in older editions. In many video and board games, ranger characters have magic arrows. And in both rangers have a mystical affinity to animals, plants, and earth.
- diving into the past history of the ranger of previous editions and recreating updated versions of those iconic features
- look into the analogs of rangers of other high magic fantasy games and converting those abolities
- think about the ranger parallels in modern media and adapting those elements
But "Conjure Barrage spell to kill faceless mooks" for every ranger.
I'm not sure what compatibility would be broken by leaving them out.that and Conjure Barrag/Volley don't match Primal but have to be in due to backwards compartibility.
Gloomstalker doesnt need a nerf, all other subclasses need a buff.Finally he seems to hate the revised Gloomstalker - not that the Gloomstalker didn't need a nerf (it did) just that this version is weird.
