I am a DM of a group who have been playing for 120 hours, and one party member is a ranger. Since the beginning I've been trying to find a good way to balance (read improve) some of the ranger's abilities and mechanics so that she becomes the versatile, adept, great tracking character she is meant to be. With the release of Tasha's Cauldron of Everything and its nerfing of Unearthed Arcana's "Favored Foe", I decided to fix it and combine them while also adding a little imagination of my own. I would love to hear your feedback in the comments!

Important note: I house rule that my rangers get to prepare spells the same way that paladins do because having spell versatility makes sense for rangers
