The good thing is, no one seems to be for it (or are arguing against it).

I am glad, becuase I wasn't sure if my response would have been appropriate.

(yes, this is a sarcastic post)

It sure can

The Devs are wise indeed...

... remember how far to powerful the ability to drop of the radar would be according to the Devs not so long ago?

Well, then EQII and SWG got married and EQII brought stealth into the marriage and all of a sudden the resources were there to give SWG "stealth", errrr, I mean the Devs changed their view. So who gets this powerful and potentially unbalancing ability? The highest damage dealing profession of course, the Rifleman

... then there's the +group terrain negotiation for Squad Leaders. It's only fair, they have a Scout pre-req, but which branch should it be? The one that covers +terrain negotiation? Of course not, silly customers, the camping branch is the most suited pre-req for such a profession

... then there are the poor crafters who can't get to their harvesters because evil creatures and NPCs send them packing back to the cloners whenever they venture beyond the city limits. What to to? We give them /conceal! After all, /conceal is supposed to work on both creatures and NPCs alike. It's right there in the description on the character sheet. Forget what we've been telling them poor Rangers about /conceal and NPCs. It works on NPCs, we don't know why, maybe bacause it was coded that way, who cares, it saves us trouble so now it's "intended" even though we told them it wasn't

.. but wait, crafters can survey while mounted, they need to be able to /conceal while mounted as well! You can allready craft a shuttleport in an AV-21, as long as those pesky outdoorsmen cant /maskscent while on a bantha, everything is fine

So, in Dev World, giving Bounty Hunters /areatrack instead of fixing BH droids is a perfectly valid solution

That was an evil post. Most angry posts make me kick my desk and give my PC nasty looks, but that one made me laugh for some reason.

if they want areatrack so bad they should just be ranger/bh's. You don't see me asking for a LLC at master ranger do you.

Let them have it! I been trying to give away our stalker sense to the jedi... lol. So, maybe we can give camps to architects too.. hehe.

/sigh

I honestly only mentioned the stalker sense to jedi since I think it would be something appropriate for a jedi since they do have attuned senses after all.
