  • The Ranger Class – Full Episode

    Everything you need to know about the Ranger class in one episode. Rangers fall into the category of ‘half-casters,’ since they utilize both martial tactics and magic. Unlike other classes, Rangers were not an OG D&D class back with first edition, and their introduction received a lack-luster welcome from some. This episode covers some of the reasons why, as well as a comprehensive overview of how to build your character using either the materials from the Players Handbook or some of the additional content from other source materials.
