Ben, A quick character note for you and GM Steve C. (and the rest of the party) to consider: Now that the party is second level, we've seen that Legion likes to use the Zephyr Strike spell. I think you took Cure Wounds as your second known Ranger spell. If you and Steve C. would consider a ret-con, might I suggest taking Goodberry instead? We already have two PCs, Twitch and Envy, who can cast emergency healing in-combat as bonus actions. When Mike's paladin joins us, we'll have another healer who can revive folks with Lay on Hands. But IMHO, Goodberry is a crazy-useful spell at low levels because it gives the party the equivalent of 10 emergency healing potions each day that can be distributed amongst the group. I don't claim to be a D&D tactical expert; that's not really my thing. But in my view, the party should try to maximize action economy and avoid PCs dropping out of combat. Cure Wounds is worth one heal that Legion must administer himself; but Goodberry is worth 10 heals that anyone can administer and can get folks revived and back into the fight, if still needing to avoid taking further damage in the short run. I recognize that using Goodberry would essentially burn one of Legion's spell slots immediately each day . EDIT: No! The Interwebs remind me that Goodberries are good for 24 hours, not a given spell-casting "day." So Legion can cast Goodberry at the end of a day that he hasn't burned both spell slots, and can start the next day with two slots ready to go. But 10 healing potions per day would cost the group at least 250 gp, and at low levels we're likely to remain cash- and healing-starved. And whereas Zephyr Strike is good for one +1d8 and freedom of movement for Legion, a batch of Goodberries essentially helps to ensure the party has maximum attacks/buffs/defenses. And of course, those Goodberries can (and may) be used on Legion, too, helping to keep him in the fight as well. I haven't done any Internet research on maximizing a Ranger build or can claim that I know what the "right" spell choices for Rangers might be, but I thought to share that thought and welcome reactions. :-) Koop
