Ranger Archive

my vote goes to the order they're listed in in the starting post.

/bump!! Good morning!!! Please post your top 5!

/lunchtime bump. Please make sure to fill this out folks. Thank you.

Here is the order I like to see. FYI base this on my play style (PvE, solo or group hunting).

1. Harvesting - We need to be able to pull the resources WAY more. I stopped trying to fill large orders becuse of this.

2. Traps - Better traps, loke good rooting traps.

3. Camps - Allow BF healing (in Ranger camps), no disband on combat (just afer a x amount of time unoccupied) and put mission terms in FB & HTFB.

4. CDM - An idea, also increase our damage done to creatures..we are hunters, we know how to take done prey.

5. Camo & Conceal - Work on NPC's (or better other players though I understand ths is hard to do). Also not break so easy. ** One idea to put on both *** add a timer to my masksent icon (like you see on buffs). I like to know when it's about to run out (espically before I plan to sneak-up to that Rancor nest) ;-)

* Area Track - I do use it at Tracking III. Fix it to work with the spawn system.


Good Hunting!

Hmm, started typing. Pulled up the first post to see which exactly our 5 priorities were and noticed they were in the right order by me. So my vote is with Nemo0/Lythender.

Give me harvesting and improved tracking in P8 and I'll be happy Ranger for a while. Harvesting should be easy to fix (assuming we stay on single resource but get more a kill and tracking has been promised to us last year, it's time to get it in.

1) Harvesting ....I can't keep up with demand for meat, hides and bones

1 Traps- loved the traps suggested in outdoorsman and even in the dev response long long time ago

2 Areatrack- beable to see stuff that isnt spawned yet and implement /track

3 Camps- fix the feild base camps to repel aggressive creatures and have them stay up while in combat

4 Harvesting- i loved the curing of hides idea

5 Camo and Conceal make so its usefull to use and better than /maskscent

1.Harvesting

2.Conceal

3.Traps

4.Camps

5.Tracking

By the way, remember that Jedi thread about harvesting? For any of you that don't know, one of them put forward the idea that Jedi should be able to harvest!

HARVESTING

#1. Only way to get some economies back into check, and to let some professions actually function.

TRAPS

#2. Make em work.

after that, whatever y'all want.

1. Harvesting - needs a MAJOR boost, See Outdoorsman Template for my Suggestons


2. Traps - This line is total Crap right now, the Devs have to see this. If not they just need to check the Logs and see how often a Master ranger throws a trap at all...i rest my case The outdoorsman has a Decent Traping template, Lets start there and improve upon it in the Future.


3. Wayfaring Tree - Camo Kits are junk. They don't even become more effective them mask sent untill master level and Even then Whats the point? Resource consumtion? Throw us a Bone here....Review the Outdoorsman post of What Wayfaring Should be....A Start might be to add a Defensive bonus to the Kits to increase demand of them being used byplayers other then rangers and then Give rangers a Bonus to the Bonus


4. Frontiering Tree - This is Also a Very important isse, Camps above and beyond the first scout campare useless in application unless you are grinding. Review the Outdoorsman, Again a Decent start for Improving camps can be found there. *Note i don't Place this as a More important issue because it is a Major game change that encompasses alot of aspects of development(Schematics, Certifications, Benificail mods, Art design...ect)...Thus taking alot of time...Time that could be much more effective on getting us smaller changes now. Otherwise this would be a number 1 or 2 issue

1. Diversity - This is an ALL encompasing issue, the fact that we even include it in our top 5, Just shows you how much trouble we are in. We are only Going to get diversity threw getting all the Changes listed above and Some real attention from the Devs. This is our NUMBER ONE Problem right now, However it is honestly much to Broad to be on the Top 5 the way it is presented.....The Devs will see this as a revamp request(What we realy need). And since Greenmarine or whoever is working on us is tied up for the next year it isn't going to be recieved well...Probably only a very ambiguous, "We'll look into it..." responce...if any.


2. Communication - Is is another Big issue, the Current comunication system is CRAP...Even just a very quick "We understand you arn't happy with the class, We'll get around to looking at you eventualy" Would ease the hearts of alot of rangers a Publicly posted Responce to the Top 5 and/or the Outdoorsman proposal would just be Awesome....Even its mostly just "this isn't gonna happen" responces
