All hail the 1 level Sable Ranger dip.

I was really expecting having to do some heavy investing here to be able to multiclass out to paladin.

BUT NOPE!! One level is all you need. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

This is going to be great.

[Schlumpsha]

Has it still the holy symbol of Abadar on the chest like Cobblehoof from the Trickster path? Or did Owlcat change it to the actual Sable Company[pathfinderwiki.com] symbol?

[Mauman]

Ha....good catch.

Sadly, it's still the giant key.

Oh well. Will still be great.

Also, it's large at level 1! Finally, an alternative (a really POWERFUL alternative) to the horse.

I must admit that it boggles my mind a bit that everything of real value like pounce comes from the animal companion progression rather than the class itself. All you lose out is some crappy looking bull rush attack by skipping out.

*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

Memo to self: Never, ever play a Sable Company Marine unless the character is a believer of Abadar.

Ranger Paladin of Abadar.

That actually sounds pretty cool.

Regardless, it's pretty tough to notice unless you zoom in with photo mode.

Ah man....

Charging damage bonuses (like Longspear bonus, spirited charge, mythic charge, Bracers of mighty roar, etc...) don't seem to work with flying attack, despite the description saying it's a charge.

Don't know if that's intended or an oversight.

Guess I'll issue a bug report to make sure.

^ I thought that might happen (downloaded and trying a fresh ranger run ATM). Charge bonuses always seemed to work when selecting the PC's charge option - never the mount. Which doesn't make sense, it should factor in any bonus regardless of which option you pick (if mounted)

The class should just give the ranger in question the flying attack ability (only usable on mount). That would probably fix the issue.

[Outlaw]

Sable meaning animal sable or black color of uniform?

[Dr. Mold]

Would it be a good idea to do one lvl into Sable and the rest into Arcane Rider?

[dszombiex]

Hippogriff is one of the weaker mounts stats wise. HP, AC, Saving Throws, Attack Bonus, Damage.

Boar seems to be the strongest.

[Nobby St-Nobs]

Hoping for a way to be able to use the flying attack directly from the ranger toolbar. Hate to switch character while mounted

[Rymak]

hhmm one level sable ranger then either warpriest mantis zealot or skald inciter.... options...

It locks you out of a level 1 demonslayer dip which is a fat -2 on attack and damage on 90% of the enemies in the game

cool pet but huge L
not sure its worth, would probably just use whatshisface companion instead and get the same upsides AND demonslayer dip on top

The pet is one of the weakest stat-wise of the animal companions. Even the pet is an L.
