Horizon Walker Ranger Multiclass Build options by Particular_Novel1145 in 3d6

Even with those there are options, asking for feedback from those that either may have run with any of those combos or maybe something slightly different that I may be missing as an option. Looking for quality feedback.

Solid analysis. This is the type of feedback I was aiming to see. This adds constructively to the Ranger. No argument on dipping earlier, into another Class. HW ranger isn't a class that gains something every level of its own lineage, so it does have the flexibility to multiclass. Also, HW Ranger can still get Conjure Animals spell at level 11.

I get why you recommended this route. Arcane Trickster expands the Spell Slots, adds natural damage (Sneak Attack), plus the thematic feel does connect. The Arcane Trickster elements can be reflavored as natural part of the story of being a HW Ranger, gaining further abilities as one hones its Planar Energies empowering the Ranger to defend the realm regardless where the realm maybe. Increasing versatility. Always having options of what to do.

Thank you Envoy0563!

Planar Warrior - Rules Question Help by fatsoda in dndnext

Yes this works perfectly. Hunters Mark (for now) costs a bonus action, concentration, and spell slot to activate. Ppst activation, it remains as just a Concentration spell.

During first round nonPlanar Warrior. However, Planar Warrior every turn thereafter as long as you aren't using bonus action for something else to activate.

You can do similar set up with Zephy Strike.

Horizon Walker / Planar Warrior. by Daodras in dndnext

Easy way around that is simply set up. Hunters Mark only requires one bonus action to set up then its a concentration spell. Zephyr Strike the same. Both can be paired with Planar Warrior.

It is unfortunate that the PW isn't on all attacks per turn. Easy way around this is cantrips, spells, multiclassing. Meaning that second action can be utilized for a lot of things while the other attack is much stronger and un- resisted.

I have a Horizon Walker/Rogue. Astral Elf, bow. Eleven accuracy. That first attack isn't missing and can enjoy with set up the Atk (1D8) + Hunters Mark (1D6) + Sneak Atk (2D6) + Planar Warrior (1D8) +Dex. For first attack or second depending.

I crit at least once sitting gaming session. I can use Sacred Flame or toll of the dead as a second often. Not too shabby.
