Spellbreaker

Magic can be a source for greatness and prosperity, but also death and ruin. Spellbreakers are special rangers whose task it is to dispose of evil mages who use their arcane abilities to bring harm upon others. To do so, they wield special techniques that allow them to detect and analyze spellcasters, break a mage’s focus and ward off harmful magical effects. When dealing with foes that can disintegrate or immolate you with ease, there is no room for error.

Spellsight

Beginning at 3rd level when you choose this archetype, you can discern an individual’s aptitude for magic at a moment’s glance. As a bonus action, you can target a creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You learn its spellcasting ability as well as its highest level spell slot.

You can use this feature once per short rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 1st-level or higher to use it again.

At 11th level, you also learn its spell save DC and spell attack modifier.

Mage Hunter

At 3rd level, you’re adept at dealing with spellcasters and have an advanced understanding of magic. You gain the following benefits:

• You gain proficiency in the Intelligence (Arcana) skill. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make using this skill.
• You learn the absorb elements spell and can cast it as a 1st-level spell, without expending a spell slot, a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier per long rest.

Spellbreaker Magic

Also at 3rd level, you learn an additional spell when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Spellbreaker Spells table. The spell counts as a ranger spell for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of ranger spells you know.
