Homebrew and House Rules


Does anyone have any house-rules they use to make Pack Lord Druids, Broodmaster Summoners, Beastmaster Rangers, etc. work?

As of now, having a level 20 character with four level 5 wolves seems a little underwhelming. Even having a level 19 and a level 1 wolf seems ridiculous. Of course, there's the option of taking Boon Companion, but that seems to only fix the temporary for each time it's taken.

Off the top of my head, I may suggest something like this (very rough):

On the left is the number of animal companions. On the right is the effective druid level adjustment for each companion. Then have a feat that does something like "Boost your effective druid level for each of your companions by 1. This feat may be taken multiple times, its effects stack."
