Hmmm... since rangers are cooler then scouts.. naturaly We should have the scouts have to pull up a stool to milk a live creature... and look ridiculous doing it ... and rangers can just slaughter a creature, harvest everything from it, including it's milk. Sounds good? Excellent!!

I'm guessing milk will be about as hard to get as eggs, and that should get you BE's happy, cuz the price will quickly drop from 4000-5500cpu to about 20-40cpu. I guess that will make me happy too, cuz then I can afford to buy sum nice BE clothes.

"I agree it will become almost worthless with any Scout being able to grab it"


Most of us will agree there is a good market for hides, meat, and bone on most servers right now, if a player has the proper connections.



  • Since Scouts can harvest those resources as well, I don't foresee too much issue with the developers approach.

Sure the price will fall significantly from where it is now...



  • But really, the price was way inflated due to the scarcity, it should fall for the betterment of Chefs everywhere.

Do we really want the Ranger to become the Star Wars milkman...!


It's a little on the sad side dont you think..? I mean come on, Milk..! Were talking about Milk here...! SWG is supposed to be my escape from reality, I dont really even want to see the word milk here never mind being responsible for collecting the stuff.


(...and no, before you ask I'm not a milkman IRL..)

well if we could milk bothan NPC's why wouldn't a Ranger be able to milk a Bothan player ?**shudder**. And if Bothan female players CAN be milked, what would stop a Bothan female Ranger from milking herself? Besides common decency...


yeah, and while I agree I don't want to be a milkmaid, I think Rangers could use something this inane as a money making source. Short on cash? Become a farmer for a little bit. Milk everything is sight (no, not the males...sicko) and there you go, instant cash. Because only Rangers could do it, milk would still be somewhat pricey, but not outrageously so.Just expensive enough to make a living on, for a little while.

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.

What, you guys don't see a Bounty Hunter as a dairy farmer? I guess I really am crazy =P


Seriously though, who ISN'T a scout? Even BEs - who would otherwise be our main source of income on milk crates - need to have scouting.

Woah! Is this what eggs are selling for now?(20-40cpu) If thats the case I have been seriously under pricing! I had no idea of the going rate for eggs and since you can't really trust what the "other guy" says, since he's trying to buy the eggs off you. I was selling eggs on Ahazi for 2cpu. No wonder they always sold on the bazaar!


Sorry to all the other rangers of Ahazi I am truly sorry if i was underselling by that much

I wouldn't worry about it. Unless you happened to have the most massive supply of eggs on the entire server, I doubt you made much of a dent in the egg commodities market.

I gathered 215 units of Lokian eggs and auctioned them, starting at 1k. I ended up getting 11k. That's about 51cpu. I think the guy who bought them didn't know what he was really buying, though. He asked me "I thought they were something eggs, not just egg?"
