So do you stand on the rifleman's forum all day long crying about their cover ability? Rangers are getting this stealth ability, which makes sense since we've been able to /conceal ourselves for years now, it's just that it never did much more than /mask from an npc.

Here is a TENTATIVE summary from devs:


  • Ranger pre-requisites are to be Scout - Explore 4, Marksman - Carbines 4

  • Ranger will get general accuracy, speed bonuses etc. similar to BHs.

So, a BH / Ranger Combination could get pretty good weapon mods, access to Proton Carbine and of course BH specials. You could add Medic 0020 for heals and spend more skill points for Carbines, or go CM 4000 like most others.


Add to this the Ranger Cloak, traps etc., I see a lot of dead bounties. .


Of course all could change.

Hey D U M B A S S. It's the ranger that get the skills. Why don't you cry about it? Too late.

if you are already master ranger, will the change in prerequisites take away my ability to be a ranger? will i lose skill boxes?




More than likely you will just get the skill boxes and be over the skill point limit when you log in. Then you'll have to check what the requirements are and surrender any skills that aren't ranger-related to keep ranger. Or maybe a respec will happen. Who knows? All I know is that when I logged on after the CU when I had been away for a year, I already had the requirements that weren't there before and had to drop skills before I could move.

Last time I was MBH/Mmarksmen/Mscout I went up that Ranger line a bit and I don't recall the traps or camo to ever work on anything but creatures. Have they really changed that much since 2 years ago or is this what they WILL be changed to in the near future?


I miss my large camps. Made out well with them when we had to run 5km+ out to our marks with no player cities or speeders heh. Always side tracking to see another BH camped out nearby =)

yeah, i've been toying with the idea of going MBH/MRanger and leaving the rest in carbs. the stealth skills and the gadgets may come in quite handy. i'd like to test this out on TC first of course so the question needs to be asked, when is any of this planned on going to testing????

Oh no! A whining, trolling jedi!

Or....wait...no....that was totally unnecessary...

It is (of course) enough to say: "Oh no! A trolling jedi....."......the whining part is implied in the word "jedi".....

Carbs rock. Too bad I went through most of Carbineer before BH. I'll have to try MBH Ranger. I played Rogues in EQ almost all the time.
