Just as the title says, if you were playing a level 5 ranger and were allowed to choose between having the beastmaster archetype or the find steed spell which would you take?
I'm in the Find steed camp, you'll still get two attacks, three if you're TWF plus the beast's attack, so damage wise you're probably pretty competitive with the standard beastmaster and to my mind getting the beast back in 10 minutes vs getting it back in 8 hours is just too much value to pass up.
Plus you get spell share if you're mounted right away, even for medium character's I'm sure the DM would let you crouch over the beast for that if you took the movement penalty.
What about you guys, which would you choose?
