Is it just me or after the CU will Ranger be the ONLY profession that requires mastering a starter prof? Based on the documents the devs have posted, I believe that's the case. BH, Commando, Combat Medic, and Doctor all currently require full starter prof tree and all are changing so master marksman (BH/Commando) and master medic (CM/Doc) are no longer required. This just handicaps Rangers even more than now. And of course, as many have noted, Rangers aren't mentioned at all in any of the documents released thus far.

Cancelled 7/27/05 - I joined to play Star Wars, not Jedi-BH Wars. You've ignored/gutted/abused just about every other profession in the game, while spending most of your time working on Jedi and BH as they related to Jedi. You've basically killed the game for anyone who doesn't want the glowstick. Congratulations.

Yep. We have pestered the Devs about this for some time.


But our issue is a bit more complicated--it's not easy to give up any of our starter trees (as we'd need to pick them up again if we wanted the higher skills to be effective) andwe don't quite fit so well into the CU. The Devs have heard quite a bit on this front, though.

Have to see what the set up is like in the new cu version.


Last i heard in the corr boards the devs acknowledged the issue and would work to sort it out. Whether they have or not is another matter.

Personally, I dont see how one can be a Ranger without being a Master Scout. Everything in the Master Scout profession continues over in Ranger.

Of course I also believe that Doctors should still be Master Medics. And that BE's should not be the ones to craft medicines... I thought it was the Combat Upgrade. Why are they messing up the non-combat professions also?

You can lower the skill point cost of scout. Lower the ranger box costs etc.

Lowering the skillpoint cost like they've done for ID is a start. It's extremely hard to justify Ranger costing more than any other profession in the game, let alone any other elite combat profession.

i'd be happy if they did what they did to ID for Ranger. like you said it would be a start, and that i think would hold over the current Rangers until the revamp

Ya I vote for a Ranger SP redution and leaving Scout alone.

I think scout might be the least borked prof in the game. Fix up the Camps and the Traps a bit and what would there be to complane about?

I say make Ranger worth it. Don't dumb us down like BHs and take away our chance for some great changes. Just make the skill points worth it.

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.
