The other thing is.. at this level.. Camping XP is a total NON-issue. Once you have achieved the highest level of camp, there is no reason to be concerned with earning Camping XP. They can give ZERO for all I care... just let me keep it up to serve as a way station for my hunting party.

With all due respect, our best camp is already one of the best hospitals the game has, a mediocre food and chemical crafting station, and a mediocre droid, weapon and generic crafting station. So much so, I already don't even "need" the medium Tat house I'm paying maintenance on. It's cheaper and easier (no need to run back to a stationary house) for me to make a bunch of HTFBCs and plop camp whenever I need to craft out some stims and traps and heal up. Player cities, which take thousands of pieces of resources to get to the level of having a mission terminal, cantina, hospital and public crafting stations, would comparably be obsolete if we get a semi-stationary HTFBC or "hunting lodge". I already have some friends who won't buy their own houses because for a few hides, bone and some steel, I can throw up a HTFBC for them for practically FREE. Storage? Not an issue,I'm a free roaming ranger with a journy pack on my back. I have everything I need. While I, too, think it would be great to have the ability to craft a semi-stationary, mini city with all the amenities...I think it would throw off the balance of the game.

Hmmm...maybe a wilderness structure construction elite-elite profession would be a good trade off? That I think would be fair.

Don't forget the coolest part about the HTFB... if you are overt it shows up on the map.

I haven't kept up with the ranger forum before cause it's a new profession so not sure if this has been suggested before. I think Ranger Camps need Mission Terminals in them. Right now they aren't all that useful. The repelling aggressive creatures aspect is nice but since you can't build them near lairs that aspect isn't really needed. However, spawning a camp 10k from any city so players can get new destroy missions would be very useful.

We have had many many ideas for camps. Some really simple to some that would take the entire might of the devs to do. And generally we just keep getting pushed aside.

You know i was going to past it was a bad idea and to easy to make money. But the more i think about it. Lets limit it to HTFB and you would be able to cause spawns in the wilderness of planets that dont have player cities. And it would encourage people to group with rangers. Its actually not a bad idea since they HTFB has a faction terminal in it already (if your declared when you place it)

I would add a Ship Terminal in the HTFB too

(yes, I know I've said so in several other posts... but you never know which posts are read by Devs, right?)

It'd be awesome to launch air strikes from HTFB, specially if some sort of strategy was involved... like avoiding some patrols if you launch them from certain ground points, etc.
