#22004, "Rangers - Explorers as a terrain option."


          

Lapse of memory for some reason caused me to think explorer was a terrain option as opposed to specialty. Seems to make sense in my backwards way of looking at things. Curious what others think.

I could see explorers not having a home terrain by virtue of their greater link to civilzation but making it a home terrain itself seem counter intuitive. Look at the Wanderlust skill, it helps mitigate the affect of time spent outside of the wilderness, does this make sense for a savage or an animist to have?

I had a gnome plainsrunner explorer whilst I waited for Vicaxion to become a mummy (or not).

Explorer was better than I thought, though, I have to say.

Wanderlust in particular is nice when perfected, making many terrains act like your home terrain. Sure, you don't get the home-terrain skills, but generic skills like herbs, and your tanking, seem to work better.
