Thanks Helios. I was fairly sure of most of the answers, but hearing it from a red name will solidify it for most people.

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.

Really its just a recap of all his previous answers with nothing new. But im glad its all in one area with a red name so that people can find it easier.

Just nice to have confirmation. A lot of the questions were like 'we are not sure but most likely it will....' sort of questions. Nice to have a confirmed answer.

For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

Hmm sounds like the scouting profession just got a lot more fun!


Sad to see forage go and hope area tracking comes back in some capacity.


Thanks for all the answers.

Check the last page and halfway down is a Dev's answers to all these questions... camping specifically:





Question: What will Scout be gaining?

  • Answer: Scout will be gainingpossibly Ranger camps, the Sonic Pulse and Flash Bomb traps, possibly the trapping mods and the havesting mods contained within Ranger will be distributed throughout Scout. Structure of these changes remains unknown at this time.

All existing creature traps, creature knowledge, harvesting, and camps from the current Ranger implementation are moving to Scount






So your camps are going to be fine!

Omg, it's nerfed, we are all doomed!

Sir, the possibility of successfully escapingDyrwen's Mindtricks in a AB-1is approximately three thousand, seven hundred and twenty to one.

Great FAQ. I'll try to answer. as possible. Forgive me if I inadvertantly reiterate some points.

Camps are being moved to scout.



  • Question: Where is areatrack going?

  • Answer: Areatrack is leaving at this time, the devs feel it doesnt provide a good enough experience. They did say that if done correctly it could make a return in some form. Hopefully we can get them to add in a well thought out tracking package before the revamp hits.

Right now, it doesn't look like tracking is going to be in the initial revamp publish. I can't comment beyond that.









Area track was always a mess because of game spawndynamics. I've never seen it work very well, and to work well, it should be accurate to a "T" within the range of 1,000 to 1,500 meters, not 200 to 400 - and inaccurately at that. It's a great feature, really great, in fact, if it worked. It doesn't work.
