Greetings,

For those that don't know me, I have been a Master Doctor for about 8 months now, and have tried to be helpful in the forums, whenever I can. My alternate character (Ivoe) is almost a Master Ranger and is in need of the support of the Doctor community. Currently a Master Ranger can only harvest 30% more meat, hide or bone (just one resource) than a Master Scout can. This would be like a Master Doctor only healing 30% better than a Master Medic, and still not having the ability to buff (Ranger has very few perks).

The Ranger community is asking for an increase in the harvesting abilities of Rangers. Ibelieve this is a valid request as revamps to Chef and BE professions have made these professions more playable. This has increased the overall amount of animal resources (meat, hide, and bone)needed in the game. This leaves Rangers working harder just to keep up. The servers are not over populated with Rangers for a reason. Please keep in mind that the Ranger community is not asking for a nerf of anyone, but an enhancement to their own skills. This increase in harvesting ability of Rangers could even reduce the high price of meat that all Doctors require.

Thank You,

I do the same.. I have an alt who is a Ranger with Track IV just to be able to harvest for my Doc's needs.

It would be great if I could harvest more, as it is quite time consuming as it is.. It would probably change the economics on the server a bit.. Maybe no more HQ Avian going for 200cpu..

I also have a support character for my doc and have the one branch that gives better creature harvisting in the ranger tree.

I have supported this idea in the ranger forum before and fully belive that there needs to be a better bonus to creature harvisting for rangers.

I also think the loot drops on avain meat need to be increase and the types of creatures need to have their meat type match their body type. Simply put the avains drop less resources then the hides or bone off other creatures which compounds the problems with Docs getting enough for Enhance packs.

I believe that everyone, especially docs, would agree with this

The Medical Correspondents have ben backing the Ranger Corresondent on this issue. The amount a Ranger gets over a scout is pretty trivial.

I'm glad to hear that our correpondents have been backing this. It seems like a slam-dunk to me. It gives rangers more of a purpose and helps curb the inflation (more resources = lower prices).

Makes since to me. Any fighter class going from novice to master gets 3x damage so a 3x in resouce harvesting would make since to me.

The Ranger prof is in need of some love. Other than Doc alt toons and holo grinders there are not very many Rangers out there.

The only money making means they have is harvesting so what ever can be done to make them harvest better is a good thing IMO.

Yes Rangers should be able to harvest more I agree.

Using food can gain you 30% on total harvested, its small but may make a difference over a day.

Oh wow, I always thought Ranger's harvesting skill brought in a lot more than that. I played Ranger for about 3 days when I was hologrinding and it out of all the various professions I had done I thought that one was one of the cooler ones

If I can do anything to support the Ranger comminity's request I will

I agree. I have hunted with my guild (all Rangers) and the amount they harvest over me (measly hunting 1 skill) is not that significant. They play it out of love of the profession. I think they should harvest WAY more than me.

I second the motion.

My alt toon is Master Ranger and a few skills shy of Master TKA. He does the harvesting and I do the crafting. Better skills overall are needed for the Master Ranger.

In fact, most "Master" classifications need better abilities. It sux when a dabbler or one with only a few skills in a Prof can do as well or close to what a Master can do.
