| Feb 23, 2020 at 19:47 | comment | added | Blckknght | There's also a non-UA version of the ranger from D&D designer Mike Mearls: Revised Ranger 2018. It's sort of half way in between the last two UA versions linked in this answer, as it's a patch to the official PHB version, like the feature variants UA, but it makes some major parts of the class (like spellcasting) optional, in the style of the UA Revised Ranger. | |

We make a class/subclass multiclass-ready if it's going to become official." "As DM, I wouldn't let a player multiclass into an unofficial class that isn't built for multiclassing." | |

| Jul 25, 2017 at 16:00 | comment | added | diego | It might be useful to point out that other than the PHB version they are playtest material and not legal in AL, and requiring DM approval otherwise. | |
| Jul 25, 2017 at 15:55 | comment | added | J. A. Streich | I know you touched on it, but you might want to list the sources for other archtypes not in those three. Mainly: - Unearthed Arcana: Light, Dark, Underdark contained a archtyoe "Deep Stalker". Jnauary's Unearth Acarcana: Ranger Rogue gives a Horizon Walker and Primeval Guardian. | |
