Exploration Knacks
Exploration Knacks
For a ranger exploration isn’t just something that happens between destinations—it’s a way of life. You start with two ranger exploration knacks of your choice. Your exploration knacks are detailed at the end of the class description. The Knacks Known column of the Ranger table shows when you learn more exploration knacks.
Studied Adversary
Studied Adversary
You have significant experience studying, tracking, hunting, and even communicating with your enemies. Choose a type of adversary: aberrations, beasts, celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, giants, monstrosities, oozes, plants, or undead. Alternatively, you can select two Mortal species (such as Jords and Talins) as studied adversaries. You have advantage on Ability checks to track your studied adversaries, or to recall information about them. You also learn to communicate with basic words in a language of your choice that is spoken by your studied adversaries, if they speak one at all. During a long rest, you can replace a current studied adversary with a new one.
Familiar Terrain

When making an Intelligence or Wisdom check related to a natural terrain, you gain an expertise die if using a skill you have at least 2 ranks in. While traveling in a natural terrain, you gain the following benefits:
Difficult terrain doesn’t slow your group’s travel.
The first time you fail a navigation check during a journey, your group does not get lost.
Even when you are engaged in another activity while traveling, you remain alert to danger. Your passive Perception increases by 2.
If you are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a normal pace.
When you Hunt and Gather, you find twice as much Supply as you normally would.
While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact number, their sizes, and how long ago they passed through the area

You learn two maneuvers of your choice from traditions you are proficient with.
You gain an exertion pool equal to twice your proficiency bonus, regaining any spent exertion at the end of a short or long rest. You use your maneuvers by spending points from your exertion pool. The Maneuvers Known column of the Ranger table shows when you learn more maneuvers from a tradition you are proficient with, while the Maneuver Degree column shows the highest degree you can select maneuvers from at a given level.
Additionally, whenever you learn a new maneuver, you can choose one of the maneuvers you know and replace it with another maneuver of the same degree from a tradition you are proficient with

You gain a +1 bonus to weapon attack rolls against the creature, and your weapon attacks against it deal an extra 1d6 damage. In addition, you have advantage on Ability checks you make to find it.
