This information is only a few hours old and already there are people stating that Jedi are calling for nerfs to the Rangers. This stuff is still IN Development, jeez. I've read every thread on the jedi boards concerning this stuff and I haven't seen one nerf call yet.


However being that our professions ranks in the top 3 in shear number of whiners it's bound to happen.


Let the rangers and Devs discuss these changes for a few weeks before we starting questioning things. I don't think any of these changes will be hitting anytime before the expansion.

if people are crying from the jedi forums, I am not surprised. .... I would say that as of late jedi have hurt our own profession enough as it is ....


Misery loves company though ...


But I agree, shut the hell up already with NERF THIS AND THAT ...

Um.....why would i care about rangers as a jedi?. The will suck as a BH hybrid since they will not receive any major combat bonuses and their 'cloaking' skills look very limited from what i read.

Very true. Just in developement, no publish date. I think the ability to steal stuff will be given to smugglers anyways since stealing should be one of their abilities. The Ranger post was just showing Rangers were getting some love, and seeing as to all the things Rangers have lost looks likea positive move. Though forage can be useful, don't see why they would bother removing that ability. I think people are just a littler nervous that Cloak will be changed by the Devs, though it shouldn't since the Rangers skills seems to be completely different.

How can you say you've lived life if you've never danced?
Well I do remember Han having a one piece suit made out of carbonite but it weighed a ton. Still it didnt require any ironing and was very wear resistant.
Thanks SOE! The CU and NGE gave me my life back. Thanks! Bitterness is the taste of love lost, a tear of acid that burns the heart.
Long gone, in sorrow of song. Stand I make to deliver hope with twisted temporal past, for the ripples in time distort what affects when. Prowlies a must see Clicky!
As a dreamer I sing to the sea and imagine the possibilities and potential this game could free, but when I get home a sad sight there be. A lost fool, for once was is gone, what could've been to never be, and the angel of my heart to be forgotten, locked away by the key of SOE.

Rangers NEED this. Remember, even if BH's go MRanger, MBH, they wont have ANY healing, except x/x/1/x medic.

however the ranger/mbh will get recon armor to wear aka energy armor.


Hopefully they reduce the skill point cost or it wont matter. I would like to think that ranger would take only 4xxx scout now that all the hunting/trapping/camping stuff has been removed from it. As it stands SP cost is my biggest complaint about ranger, well besides that they are not rangers but high priced scouts.

It will be interesting so see where their ability to see thru a cloak is? and if it is reliable, then a ranger will be a bounty hunters new best friend in tracking a cloaked Jedi. Nerf call , nope but once something gets momentum it may take on a new life of its own. The possibility of seeing thru a cloak is huge, I would suggest that folks read thru this list and address concerns. I would rather be alittle proactive upfront and address it now than deal with a mess later on, with a little sigh that says "I told ya So". Luck to you all

Rangers cannot reveal jedi cloak as it is considered a mind trick, they can only reveal other rangers and riflemen...check the dev tracker.

Hmmm. I remember saying this exact same thing to you in my post that got deleted. I knew the nerf calls and crying would come hard and fast and they have.
