So if you're just talking about ranger, pretty good.

However, if you're talking about hunter's mark, it's boring trash. Ranger's have so many cool spells they could use, but then they have several class features devoted to fucking hunter's mark. So regardless of the route you take, you feel like you're missing out on part of your class.
