Thread: New Ranger Titles?

Is it just me, or do none of the Ranger titles sound appealing?


I mean lets look at them.


Wayfaring - Wayfarer


Frontiering - Frontiersman


Field Bioscience - Hunt Master


Advanced Trapping - Trap Master


Does any of these sound like something you'd want over your head? I mean who would be like "whoa, that guy's a WAYFARER, how cool!!!!!"


Personally, I'm putting up with Novice Ranger, until master.............*sigh*


Well, now that some of the trees are getting new names, maybe we'll get some new titles to go with them.


Since some of the trees are getting complete overhauls, maybe we can get some new titles as well.



Wayfaring is getting new camoflauge stuff, so maybe it could have a title like:


Camoflauge Expert? Stealth Expert? Stalker? or maybe even the classic "Expert" Rangerlike so many other professions have? Honestly Just about ANYTHING would sound better than "Wayfarer."


Frontiering could maybe have:


Camp Engineer? Quartermaster? Survival Expert? Once again, just about anything would sound better than "Frontiersman." That sounds like some guy rolling across the plains in a covered wagon..........


Field Bioscience, being changed to Tracking should DEFINITELY get a new title:


Master Tracker? Pathfinder? or maybe even something as simple as changing "Hunt Master" to "Master Hunter" The second one sounds a lot better, in my opinion.


I can't really think of any for Advanced Trapping, maybe someone else can help me think of some.



What do you think guys? Should some of the titles be changed? If you agree, please take a second and post here. Lets let the devs know we want this change, and perhaps we'll see it along with our new skills. Also, if anyone has any other ideas on what the titles could be, post those too, more suggestions would be great. Let's band together and make this idea happen.

I personally like:


Wayfaring - Stalker or Nomad


Frontiering - Frontiersman... I like it, it fits


Tracking - Pathfinder or plain'ol Tracker


Advanced Trapping - Expert Trapper? Hehe, Ambusher?

ROFL @ Pontiac Wayfarer. I think I'd have to go and crap myself if I ever saw that.

Hey I am eventually planning on Frontiersman as my permanent title so leave it alone, I admit the other ones all suck though.

I like Frontiersman as well.


For the others, I'm full of apathy...

Good topic. My votes:


Wayfaring - Pathfinder


Frontiering - Frontiersman (i.e., keep it)


Tracking - Stalker


Trapping - Master Trapper (looked in my Thesaurus; there just aren't any cool synonyms)

I was kinda meh about Wayfarer at first, but after having it above my head for a while I have grown fond of it.

Hmm, I don't know.


I like the title Hunt Master very much (especially after reading "The Black Wolf" by Dave Gross, a Forgotten Realms book).

WHAT! I LOVE WAYFAYER. I never even used a until I reached Wayfayer. Once I hit master I will still leave Wayfayer as my title. Its the best title in the game.

IMO the Field-Bioscience name is just right for the line not Tracking, and yes i know why you all may ask.


Well remember this is a Sci-Fi game not a medieviel elven ranger please dont try to turn us into one I agree with many of the changes but Field-Biosci is a broad term for the Hunting line that is still scientific in nature.


Let us try to keep the Science in a Science fiction game as far as titles go these are my most favored:


Wayfaring=>Infiltrator,Pathfinder


Frontiersman=>Frontiersman


(Now) Tracking=>Stalker, Hunt Master


Trapping=>Trap Master
