Ranger Archive

I think that it would be possible to make a special structure that only Master Rangers can make. I would have many thing that would be usefull to many. They would act as temporary shelters out in the great wilds. For example it could offer the following:

Banking: Allows you to keep things safe that you can't carry everywhere with you.

Insurence: You never know when you need to insure somthing you just looted

General Crafting: Mostly for Rangers when they need to make a Camo Kit on the spot, if you have some experimenting you know that it can yeild alot more kits.

Mission Terminals: Both regular and explorer type mission terminals, so that out in the wild if you are short of cash you can run a few missions.

Healing and Entertainment bonuses: Much the same way a regular camp works, only alot better.

Show up on the planetary map so that players can have a place to head for instead of going all the way back to some outpost.

Temporary: Should only last for a week, depending on the quility of it. Should also have mant cost like a normal house, but if redeeded it should reset its temporary timer.

The main purpose of a Ranger Outpost is a place that a group of players can go back to for services, instead of having to go halfway across the planet. I think it would be much more usefull on adv planets, expecially no-build planets. It has to be temporary and use up alot of money, to keep them rare and only used when needed. I think that they should be planet specific, and it would be nice if they could be redeeded, and then the temporary timer would reset, and then the ranger could choose to place it again or keep it till needed again.

I think that maybe in the light of helping rangers get money from this make it so thata certain amount of money from missions would go to the Rangers bank. I think a master Ranger should be able to craft and own this, and noone else.

Any ideas, I had some more but could think of them right now. Tell me what you think about this.

Not a bad idea, but I think a little over the top. This isa city all in one, and I think that may be a little much. I don't think that the Ranger class should be completely autonomous from the rest of the game elements, which this would definately allow. I don't have a problem with the premise ... that being a Ranger semi-permenant or perminant structure. (The ranger cabin idea presented in the wish list is still my favorite, especially if it can be build on non-buildable planets like Endor *grumble grumble*), However I think that the banking, mission and insurance terminals cross over the line.

As far as showing up on a planetary map.... that is a deignated ability of two professions (politician and merchant). I wouldn't want to short them their due.

My thoughts.

Thats what I was thinking too, which is why it would be better suited for planets like Dathomir, Endor and Yavin 4, where cities don't exist. I still think that somekind of semi-perma structure would be great for Rangers.
