Lol - yeah, a chanter could improve the rangers ranged abilities, give summons and offer tankyness - but then I'd be missing an animal, and Noah couldn't have it!
So far, I have given resilience to all the pets, and just made my rangers DPS specced - MAX Might and MAX Dex.
Also - in order to tell whose animal is which - I made the name of the ranger and the pet start with the same letter. So my first ranger is Arnold, and he has a pet antelope called Agnes. Second is Baldur and his pet bear is Bobo, and so on....up until Fabiola with her wolf Fang, lol.
Well, if all goes wrong - I'll restart with all chanter build named Bard College lol.
