#74288, "Terraform"


          

Please please please give rangers Terraform skill (in hero range probably, around 47). This will transform any room (specifically, ability to include city/civilized) into ranger's home terrain.
Obviously, large timeout, affect disappears over time, large to huge lag to terraform. Rangers really lack good PK options at hero, everything beyond waylay into snare has been nerfed. This will give much-needed dynamics and provide a reason to fear any ranger, including perhaps bedouins and mariners even.

This is just a completely ridiculous idea for so many reasons it's not worth listing them all.


You would be better off asking for some rangers (probably only animists) to get plant growth, and even that is probably asking for too much.

I could see something like plant growth for all rangers, with some heavy restrictions:

Lag like sanctify room (means the ranger is out of camo and lagged out for several ticks).

Causes any non-wild mobs in the room when you cast it to be aggro.

Long cooldown timer (100-200 hours)

Can't be used in a protected city.



Definitely not auto-home terrain though. Don't think that would be OP, probably not even something you would use often. But it could open up some options.

I'd put even more restriction on terrain besides not home-terrain. I think the terrain should be something like forest trail. Ranger waylaying on eastern is cool. Snare terrain kinda isn't because it'll just become about snare ganks.
