Looks like harvesting, camps, MS and anything that wasn't broken/redundant is moving down to Scout.

Might be new monkey making possibilites for Rangers tho...

Helios mentioned that scout will have all of the creature harvesting skills that the ranger/scout boxes currently have, combined.

Any word on camps? Those have always been cool in the game...would be a shame to see those disappear. Just doesnt

seem like a large camp will fit the new ranger temp though...and there is no mention of them in the revamp info. If ranger doesnt require xxx4 scount, think they might give the camps to SL?

well taking a look at the proposed changes, I for one (been a Ranger on shadowfire since 1 month after launch) think the changes wikk be kinda neat. Reading the post it looks like keeping master scout will be nice, and the camps and creature harvesting will keep scout viable, while being a Ranger/BH will make the two professions more like what I envision Boba Fett's skill set to be. BTW, just for clarification, Ive hunted one Jedi, and while I treated him with respect, hated it, so I accept bounites on NPC's only. So I think I'll dust off Iabog on shadowfire and give the new changes a whirl. Hopefully there are still some Rangers there.

Well, SL already requires the Survival line, so either doubling that up or moving the Ranger camps to SL might make sense.

I read everything! WHAT ARE THEY DOING TO THE RANGER PROFESSION!? AAHHAHAHAHAA! They are ruining it!.... That isnt a revamp, its a demote. Make the ranger a spy-like profession!? And no more scout abilities? GIve me a break. *raises red flag* That is a disgrace to all Rangers, who track, hunt and trap. *Sarcastic* GREAT REVAMP DUDES! Thumbs... down!

The verdict is still out on if we are getting combat mods.





It looks like there will be mods, but what and how much isn't yet determined.

Here's what Helios wrote:
Currently, the plan is to give them combat mods. Specifics are yet to be determined. Your input is appreciated.




Ok..BioE is right (savor this moment, Bio...it may not happen again!)...I thought the wording was more vague than that (but who can even guess what mods we would get. We might only get +10 (more) to Melee and Ranged Def, or we might get all sorts of goodies. .

I just wanted to point out, that everytime the DEVs do something horrible there is always somesheep saying this.... we should know by now that the Devs don't know what they are doing, and if it looks stupid on paper it will be even worse in implementation. Tell the devs they are wrong before it goes live, and if enough people let them know, they will change it... see the horrible initial implementation of the new entertainer buffs, those thank god, were chaged before going live.


I for one think the revamp is great... they are just forgetting one key part of the revamp... the name of the profession needs to be revamped to spy or rogue.
