Whoops double post,


Heh I was coming to the board to ask the same question .


I am 20k away from Novice Ranger, but have enough XP for Rifleman and BH are there any other experiances rangers out there with opinions on the diffrent types of Ranger.


I tend to be PVE more than PVP that being said I do like to PVP from time to time, The one thing I do enjoy about the BH class is that they are not limited to just one weapon type.


I have heard from multiple rangers on my server that Rifle is the only way to go, the range cannot be beat!


Just looking for a few more opinions from some fellow rangers out there


Of course I could just go Carbineer .

I personally swing with Rifles, gotta love Snipershot! Actually it boils down to all the ******* I'd take from my friends and guildmates if I took up BH after 2 years of saying I'd never be a BH in this game.

Squad Leader 0300 also gives you volley fire which is very usefull in a group.

that would be my template if I didn't have FS trees. MBH/MRanger/SL 0300 is a very nice Ranger template.

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.

If you are MBH/MRanger with SL 0300.
General Ranged Speed +45
General Ranged Accuracy +95
Melee Defense +145
Ranged Defense +170
How cool is that?
If you use SL 0030
General Ranged Speed +50
General Ranged Accuracy +115
Melee Defense +115
Ranged Defense +140
But it depends on your weapons, tactics, and hoping the abilities aren't capped at +125. If they aren't I'm going 0300.




Abilities are no longer capped. So enjoy.

Master Ranger


Master Bounty Hunter


SL 0300 (for the defense)


It works fine. I've been that way for about a month.

Master Ranger/Master Rifle here...


I have to say there are so many things about Rifle and Ranger that compliment each other that its a great choice. Rifle has some great moves such as conceal shot and the ability to /conceal. Combine this with ranger crawl speeds and what you can do is pretty amazing. I went rebel special forces the other night and crawled all the way from the bottom of the theed waterfall up into the back of the Theed Starport under /conceal. Waited in the corner for a spec forces Imp to come shuttle out to somewhere on Naboo. One sniper shot, head shot and he was down...stood up...ran and death blowed... dropped and concealed..and started crawling away. By the time his friends got in i had crawled out of the back of the starport and along the edge of the building... they looked for 15 min..until i was so far away i couldn't see em...lol.


So it can be good for PVP in special circumstances....and having a great Rifle is a MUST. In PVE its very effective as well. With the coming revamp, i doubt the combination can do anything but get better.

So they removed the distance deathblow Master Riflemen could do? Can you tell it's been a long time since I played?.
