Ranger Archive

I was reading through some of the posts and was thinking (kinda scary i know)

but im was wondering how a planetary specializtion system would go over for ranger

my way of thinking is that each creature harvested and % of planet explored would go to a pool for that planet

whena ranger reaches a certain amount in that pool he becomes a master of that planet and receives all kinds of bonuses

terrain + harvest + creature to hit + and even npc to hit + camoflage bonuses and conceal bonus and effective tracking . and another bonus is that these skill bonus would apply to groups that the rangers were in / lead

this would make a rangers more unique as they are the only class that can recieve extra bonuses based on their planetary specialization and make them a class requested for hunts more often

i can for see people wanting rangers who specializes on certin planets looking for master ranger who has mastered dantooine to aid in dark jedi hunts !!

maybe its all far fetched but i think planetary specialization would make rangers more unique and varied ...

who knows i just figured i would toss it out there ...

That actually sounds like a good idea to me, and I dont think I have ever seen any thing like it mentioned before. The only thing I would be wary about is exactly how you become a "master" of <insert planet>. Just from harvesting and exploration makes it seem like to much of a grind to me, people would try to do the exploring by riding around on vehicles, and they would just grind critters for the harvest. I think I remember hearing from a dev somewhere that they are going to start changing progression some (like how professions will advance in JTL, and jedi advancement with revamp...and supposedly everything would be like this eventually, but maybe I was just seeing things). Other than the way you would master a planet (which isn't to bad of an idea really, I'm just nit picking) this sounds like a good idea to me.

What I wonder is how easy this would be to implement though...if it was to difficult or complex it would probably take a long long time before it was implemented (assuming everyone, including developers, likes this idea).

Interesting.....I can see how this would draw the RANGER community together too.

I agree. This is a great idea. It just needs to have the bugs worked out.
