@nadaval6the special extra turn of the UA ranger, does it have a move, interact with object, and bonus action? doesn’t say in UA yes to bonus action, yes to move, action can only be spent to attack or hide, as per the ability's description

UA Ranger – 2d6 hit dice per level? Why so high?
@SlyFlourish2d6 hit dice per level? Why so high? Just curious. pegs the ranger as the best at surviving stuff – ultimate survivor, a la Aragorn falling off a cliff in LotR movies

@Iscariot125 @SlyFlourishIt eliminates his need for hit and run/skirmisher tactics though if they can just soak it all up. artifact of earlier draft with companion that didn't require concentration

UA Ranger – Why Spell-less ?
@bedirthanyou tossed aside the “spell-less” Ranger for a full reboot. What lead to that angle? i'd prefer to nest such an archetype in the fighter

UA Ranger – Hit Point Dice during rest
@SalmonSquirequick clarification. 1d6+con for short rests or 2d6+con for short rests
you spend the dice separately, so its 1d6+Con

Psionic mental powers
@Hard_Vice @mikemearlsLove this approach to psionics. Stance-like mechanic of disciplines is really interesting, and it feels different from magic.
Focus on purely mental effects, psychometabolism, and psychic damage makes it feel like it has its own place.

@Hard_Vice yeah, definitely want to go that route, avoid psionic fireballs, etc.

Psionic in organized play
@Kez_Darksun @gregbilsland @Wizards_DnDCan we use this content in organized play?
sorry, but no. OP DMs have a lot to juggle, and we don't want them also policing playtest content

Psionic d8 HP
The article has been corrected and is now ready to go. Enjoy our first step into the world of psionics in 5e – http://t.co/nGhABJUeMJ

@bedirthanwhy a d8 for HP? I’d think a psionist is more like a wizard than any other class. a d8 makes a good comp to a cleric, which lets the design encompass a much broader range of archtypes
