Former BH/Master Rangerand Master BioEngineer/Master Ranger here. Ranger was the first profession I mastered.

To me, Ranger has always been a nice complimentary profession to help with a primary profession. When I was a BH, it helped me with xp and safely getting to my marks.

When I was a BE, ithelped me with finding creatures I wanted to sample and sampling the tougher creatures whilst using camo kits.

Other than that, the traps have pretty much sucked except for the occasional snare or root trap that will get me out of a bind. The camps are more or less eye candy. With vehicles, wayfaring is obsolete. Also with vehicles, tracking isn't a real necessity anymore.

The problem is that as a dubbed "elite" profession, the Ranger is hardly anywhere near elite. The Ranger, as is, is not a stand alone profession like others have the ability to be.

Really what they should do is either grant Rangers the uniqueness and abilities that make them an elite profession, or just remove Rangers as an elite profession and just replace the Scout tree with it.

I'm just sticking it out because I will regret it if they actually make Rangers a nice profession someday. Would hate to be the one saying, "oh **edit**, I shoulda never dropped Ranger!"

But, its undeniably true. Rangers stink.

Agreed, there is most definitely a history with Rangers in EU, but it seems as if that's all being ignored because they haven't the ability to rule out people using packet sniffers to cheat on any would be stealthing vs. other players. I would *love* to see Rangers as a stealth profession and when camo came back I thought we were finally headed in that direction. Then that was yanked out. Doh!

I have illustrated before how to defeat packet sniffers. Tell me, just how do you avoid the "magic spawns" that suddenly surround you? Think about it, has anyone come up with a way to defeat that?

Ranger is not a profession. It's a lifestyle.

Guys and Gals,

I have been in this game since pub 4. I loved (past tense) this game. This was the first game to truely keep me entertained for longer than a 6-8 hour period. I had done almost everything i the game prior to getting Jedi and the months of grinding jedi was actually quite fun for me.

Unfortunately i have been waiting for FRS and the "fix all" patch. They are not coming. I like playing with my alt but lets get serious.... Not what I pay my hard earned cash for. So after a long time i have come to the very sad conclusion that the only way to fix this game (for me) is to leave and save myself the grief. I know Sony won't care about the loss of 1 account, but you never know. Either way i can't keep paying for this LARGE POS.

If the game ever gets back to iuts former glory i'll be back. But for now... Guys i hope things get better for everyone in the game. If not enjoy whatever you do in the future.

Id go with you if I knew it would make a difference.

Only way it would is if we could convince 500,000 other players to do the same for 2 months.

I already quit once for 6 months, then came back to see what as up.

Apparently, nothing has changed. I wish you well.

The last information i read at mmogcharts.com SWG had around 250.000 active acounts. I know that ALL people i know had 2 or more accounts i think there are only around 150.000 players left, and the count goes down the drain.

My freindlist, growed in nearly 2 and a half years of playing, since us-launch, shows me mostly only 3 or 4 friends online. Most Places in FarStar looks empty like the sahara, most times its hard to find only 4 players to group with. I see the end is coming.
