Huntsman

At 4th ranger level, when you enter focus, you can designate one creature within sight range as a target. For the duration of focus, the target has disadvantage on block attempts against your attacks. 

If the target is slain or knocked unconscious, you can reenter and reset focus as a free action, choosing a new valid target.

At 4th ranger level, when you prep (ranger 2) you can also do one of the following:

• Gather supplies - Create 2 alchemical points (AP.) You can have a maximum equal to your wisdom or intelligence bonus, whichever is higher. 

• Poison preparation - Do any of the following:

  • Ochre venom - create 1d3 vials of ochre venom by spending 1 AP. A single dose can be applied to a weapon or piece of ammunition, or consumed, and deals 2d6 necrotic damage. For an hour after injury, if the target reaches 0 health, they become stabilized and paralyzed for 1 hour instead of dying.

  • Poison enhancement - Alter a poison, poison damage dealing consumable, or acid damage dealing consumable you possess by spending 1 AP. Increase its damage dice by 1 size category, durations by 1 unit(turn, round, minute, hour), DCs by 1, and area size by 5ft, if applicable, and allow it to bypass poison resistance. This can be done to an item only once.

  • Huntsmans elixir - Create 1 tincture of hunstmans elixir for 2AP. It grants the benefit of your focus(at the time of crafting) feature when consumed. It deals 1d4 poison damage and 1 damage to fatigue afterwards.

• Dust preparation - Do any of the following:

  • Silver blade dust - create 1 vial of silver blade dust for ap. When applied to a weapon, for the next 2d4 attacks, any damage it deals cannot be healed until after the wounded creature takes a short rest. When applied to a bolt or arrow, grant it the cursed damage effect and cause it to deal 3d8 extra necrotic damage.

  • Crystal powder - create 2d3 pouches of crystal powder for 1 AP. They can be thrown either as a flare into the air, or struck at the ground within 30 feet, creating a 15ft sphere of dust at the point of impact, revealing invisible creatures. Once thrown they sparkle for 2d3 rounds. If fired from a launcher weapon, blinds targets on a critical hit for 2d3 rounds.

• Tool preparation - do any of the following:

  • Potion of the cat - create 1 potion of the cat for 1 AP. When consumed it grants the following effects for 3 hours: 60 feet of darkvision and gain 4 dice of the cat. A dice of the cat is a 1d4 that can be used to grant a bonus to an attack, a dexterity save, or a charisma save.

  • Barbed ammunition - Modify 2d3 +wisdom bonus pieces of ammunition to deal an extra 1d6 damage, apply bleed on a critical, and have a 1d10<3 chance to apply bleed on other unblocked hits. A bolt cannot be modified by this more than once.

  • Exotic ammunition - modify 1d3 + wisdom bonus pieces of special ammunition, either arrows, bullets, or bolts for 1 AP. The ammunition ignores resistance, and deals 1d8 extra damage of your choice: fire, lightning, acid, or sonic. A piece of ammunition cannot be modified in this way more than once.

  • Specialized bolt - modify 1 piece of ammunition for 1 AP to expand its critical range by 3.

The DC of your ranger creations is (8 + your proficiency, plus either your wisdom bonus or your intelligence bonus, whichever is highest.) unless otherwise stated.
