SUPER IMPORTANT ROLES IN THE GAME??????? what kind of crack are you smoking? if by super important you mean being the most ignored profession in the game....... promising revamps and then giving them to smugglers, then entertainers instead.....wondering how few working traps rangers can use...... taking away all the perks of having a ranger in ones group..... then yes.



Rangers are super important?


seriously.... think about it.



how many traps currently work... (and are useful)


due to the spawn rate around charactors... (what good is tracking since you cant track what hasnt spawned?)


how many revamps have Rangers been promised? Only to be pushed back so entertainers can have twirly thingys.


what good is a campsite now?


when was the last time creature knowledge was useful?

can you really justify spending all those skill points just so you can crawl a hell of a lot faster than some can walk up hills.

how can you make money from harvesting since any BH or CH can keep up with a Ranger when they are in a party? and when in a party you get more way faster




is this the super important role you speak of?


and before you flame me for posting here....I earned the rank of Master Ranger, I didnt respec. but I got tired of all these things and then some.

Holy cowpat. And another thread trolls off into the realms of bh/jedi poodoo flinging.


Time for this old ranger to roll up his bed and go hang out elsewhere.

Should all Armor Crafters and Droid Engineers gain several attacks and tons of defences? Just because they are also "Elite" professions? NO!


You make your choises! If you want combat you take combat professions, if you want both, you take one non-combat profession AND one combat profession. But dont gain as many attacks or defences/offences.


Ranger doesn't have "combatant" written all over it. If you think it should be a part of the GCW you probably just doesn't understan what a rangers purposes are. I really hope the Devs keep the ranger "ranger". It would be faaar to weird to see rangers running around trapping people and soloing jedi's. Rangers are already as good as they are and have their super important roles in the game.





Hmmm-- crafters...level 1. Rangers....level 54.
crafters...no health bonus. Rangers...health bonus of an elite combat profession.
Rangers....armor certed. Crafters...not armor certed.
Crafters....no offensive ability. Rangers....multiple crowd controling specials, a few state inducing specials and defense reducing specials.


What other professiosn give a boost to CL, health, grant armor certs and are able to apply states? Oh, right. COMBAT professions.

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.

Where would all the crafters get their resources from witout us good rangers?





From any of the hundreds of people who can harvest more per hour than we can because their double-combast mastery template can kill faster than us so while we harvest more per critter, they harvest a lot more critters. Not sure how long you've been around but when you've seen prices drop from 350cpu down to 20-25cpu for really amazing stuff, you know that the Rangers harvesting ability is not really neccesary. It's redundant when you can kill stuff and move on much faster.

tell you what.... you try and harvest with you and one other master Ranger...... then, at the same time you have a party of 8 with a novice scout or BH go out on a hunt......guess who will out harvest who????




the simple fact that you have acknowledged all the problems I mentioned earlierbut still feel that Ranger is as powerful and "important" as you say it should be only proves that you are eitherate paint chipsor were dropped on your head as a child.



so please???? enlighten me as to what the "super important" role is for Rangers is in SWG..... I assure you, you have mine, and the rest of the Rangers attention. and dont say harvesting..... cause you cannot justify that.



I am all ears......




PS, I am not a kid so please dont assume anything.....the crack referenceis a phrase that people use to say "are you for real?" So unless you are admitting to be ancient, please try and keep up with the slang (as this phrase has only been used for about 15 years)...... other than that..... just so you know, I meant it not assuming you use crak, but rather that I absolutely disagree with your earlier statements.


ohhh, and the paint chips and being dropped on your head remarks were also phrases that people use....(though it is alot less funny when you have to explain it to the person you are talking to. stop spending 15 / month on SWG and buy yourself a sense of humor

Hey - at least its not my fault this time (/nervousgrin). But seriously guys, from one ranger forum troll to the others - this is our official issues thread, could we take it somewhere else, so the thread doesn't get deleted. Please....

I really don't get where you are going. Or how far you think with your brain. If you are Master Ranger, you only are able to hunt with ONE single other master ranger? Is that your point? Tell you what, if a Master Ranger is with the combat templates your described you outharvest the "novice scout" you had to draw into this with GREAT ease.


the simple fact that you have acknowledged all the problems I mentioned earlierbut still feel that Ranger is as powerful and "important" as you say it should be only proves that you are eitherate paint chipsor were dropped on your head as a child.


Fact stands, its self providing. You harvest alot.


so please???? enlighten me as to what the "super important" role is for Rangers is in SWG..... I assure you, you have mine, and the rest of the Rangers attention. and dont say harvesting..... cause you cannot justify that.


Master Ranger +50 Creature Harvesting

Then, go ahead and say "are you for real" and not "what crack are you smoking". Which easily can be misunderstood by people who are NOT from YOUR country. Which I am not. Since this game is global lets speak a language we all can understand.

You don't know a sh*t about me, you cannot tell what I do all days long since you never met me. You don't eaven know anything about my humor. If using slang like that, I should call you KID. Which you obviously misunderstood just the way as I did with your stuff. Since you really sound and act like one.

I'm calling shenanagins before Virrago gets back off holiday and locks this thread.

If you can't post without resorting to personal insults, perhaps you need to sit for five minutes before hitting the send button.

Last time I looked this was the Ranger COMMUNITY forum, not a special needs school.

Now.

Before I go get the thwap stick.

Behave.
