I was going to suggest this because ranger takes up so many skill points, that having it, and having a combat prof mastered leaves you 4 SP, which you can't do anything with. It would be nice to either A) get a bonus out of my ranger skills, or B) take away the master scout requirement for ranger, allowing us enough skill points to get some healing abilities.

Ranger prerequisites are also changing. In addition to get a full set of combat mods comparable to other combat professions you will only be required to have 2 novice skill branches to earn Novice Ranger, similar to Bounty Hunter, Squad Leader or Commando. We are currently looking at setting the Ranger prerequisites to Scout - Exploration 4 and Marksman - Carbines 4.

That was posted by Keldarin. For all us Carbine BH, this would allow up to 3 full branches and the first box of the 4th branch in ranger(at the cost of all healing aside from Stim Ds, though). I don't know that I'll go that high in it, but I might seriously consider dropping CM down to just some medic and then invest in a tree or two from ranger. While still only being developed, it's an exciting prospect for myself as a Carbineer/BH.

This was just added to the thread by TH.

For the sake of discussion, modern Rangers oftencarry carbines. Its traditionally used as a support weapon.

I can't wait til the ranger change. I think it will be fun to try. If we get some combat moves and all those new toys i've read about i think a MBH/MRanger will be one nasty mofo

As I stated, I don't think I will give up M. Carbines(spent too much on my E11 Mk.2), but I will sure dump enough healing and pick up SEAs and some ranger trees.

Which begs the question. Will the Rangers get a profession specific weapon(carbine) at Master Ranger.

Rangers lead the way.

A Ranger is a more elite soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air. I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than any other soldier.

I hope so, for my alts sake. Theres still a lack of high end carbines compared to Pistoleer - Rifleman.

I think we do ok in regard to the rifleman, they have 3 high end energy weapons that come to mind to our 2(craftable), but at least our level 50 carbine is craftable, they have to loot their level 50 rifles. Now against pistoleer, yeah, we are a bit lacking. CL 54 Kinetic carbine ftw, come on devs!
