Could our best ranger camp be set up as a one or two lot camp that we can store items in and use like a house? Make it so the tent can be entered like a merchant tent etc. That would be so awesome and realistic.

I think this has been discussed before (do a search).

As far asI can remember, most of the people were against it:


* why should it take a lot? It's not something permanent

* why store items? Again, it's only a temporary encampment

* what does it give as an additional bonus if it costs 1 lot?

I think her point was that it would be permanent.

In a related thought imagine this...


At Master Ranger we get a Hunting Cabin. It takes 1 lot and has 100 items. But unlike the other houses in game this one can be built on the planets that no other homes are allowed on. It taes up a lot and each MR is only allowed 1 per planet.(this alone would make them sparse). It would give us as Ranger sthe ability to actually live in the out of the way places like Yavin IV or Dathomir.

I actually like this idea.

That is outstanding.


We could even have a pick of four styles--rock home (like the Kunga huts), a "log cabin" type (that still looked Star Warsy), a mud home like Yoda had, or a reinforced canvas structure.

Yes just like a house. And, I love the idea of it being used on Yaven, Endor the new planet. That would make us much more desirable as rangers. We could be limited to one each if that is a problem. Still like the idea of a camp....might as well have a use for our camps.

I got to the point I never put one up since combat made it poof, leaving it made it poof, and not being able to store the hides and meats I had harvested in it made it useless other than showing it off.

When I went hunting in a group, all the newbie scouts would throw up their tents for the xp which I did not need since I was a master ranger....like a dummy I gave it up and am now doing it all over again but almost done.

I love the idea of a camp, just not the reality of exactly what it does. Bet there are few players who actually put them up after they reach master.

If this were ever implemented I think it should be a master ranger ability. Noone could be on the admin but yourself and no vendors should be allowed inside. Imagine if a vendor could be placed inside. you'd have people using their alts as master rangers and some merchant mixed in and the village on dath would be surrounded by these camps. Not a good thing. I mean I would really love to live on Endor or Yavin but because of the pseudo cities that might spring up I overall don't think this is a good idea.

A Ranger Hunting cabin, very cool idea. I like it a lot, can someone post that over to the devs?



I was drugged and left for dead in mexico and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

It's been brought up to them numerous times. IF we were to get it, it wouldn't be until our revamp.
