8Hunter

D&D Player’s Handbook
Main Benefit
High damage output and extra weapon skills.
Customizability means that options are often situational or are only decent if you build your ranger a certain way.
However, your higher-level abilities are much more straightforward and do pack a punch.
7Beast Master
This subclass gets an animal companion.
you could either select Beast of the Land, Beast of the Sea, or Beast of the Sky.
This beast then acts during your turn and can perform several actions.
As you level up, your beast companion will as well.
This can be immensely helpful in combat situations.
There are so many powerful spells in Dungeons & Dragons.
But, which are the most broken?
Druidic Warrior is one example if you’d like access to an even wider array of spells.
5Drakewarden
Fizban’s Treasury Of Dragons
One of the strongest Ranger pets available inD&D.
Gathered Swarm
The advantages of being a ranger of the Swarmkeeper subclass might not be obvious at first.
3Horizon Walker
Xanathar’s Guide to Everything
Teleportation abilities for both combat and transportation.
Hunter by Katerina Ladon
Honestly, you might consider Gloom Stalker and Horizon Walker on the same tier simply Horizon Walker can teleport.
And teleporting is cool.
This guide is worth buzzing about.
Beast Master by Alditha Siregar
This subclass works best in a planar campaign, but it will still be plenty of fun anywhere.
The fact that other creatures with Darkvision cannot see you in the dark ties it all together.
1Monster Slayer
Similar to the original Hunter build but with more spells and specialized abilities.
