Classlead for Amazon/Ranger

Written by: Dec

Addressed to: Everyone


Hello Everyone,

We're starting our first class-specific classlead today with the Amazon/Ranger profession. This class generally felt like it needed some of the most love and so it gets to be the first class.

Some of the rules for this round:
* You can submit up to 5 classleads
* They must be in one of the three class skills for Amazon/Ranger
* Big ideas and small ideas are welcome
* The goal is generally to make the class more fun and better to play.

Take in mind that there are a lot of factors in play here. With things like bows there are skills that could unbalance if given to people with artifact bows, and ranged combat has generally been considered a novelty with it's long history of not being balanced. But with that said, there are no absolute restrictions on what you can propose, so long as they are focused on making Amazon/Ranger into something better.

Because of the nature of this round, and the potentially conflicting direction of different solutions, we may end up bulk rejecting some classleads that don't fit with the overall chosen theme. Please don't get discouraged if this is the case, as big ideas rarely mesh well.

In the description of the problem and the solutions, please go into some detail about the implementations as you envision them. The monkeys paw and my implementations have been known to be referenced in the same sentence.

Remember to comment. If you think there is some synergy between your own classlead and another one, please point that out. Remember that stating something on the forums or discord do not count as commenting and generally get forgotten in the process.

Finally, please try to avoid posting links to logs. Logs are generally less useful than descriptions because logs are highly situational. If a balance time is too slow, just say it and we can look up in the code to see what the time really is and what it's affected by.

Happy Classleading
