Hi guyz
I just wanted to hear your views on the possible effects this will have on us Rangers, both in the short, and long term.
With the predicted fall in the average persons income i have been hearing alot of talk about crafters having to lower prices for goods, this in turn having an effect on the prices charged for resources. Specifically, i have heard many people saying that Rangers will have to lower there prices for resources collected.
What are your thoughts on this? I always thought that what is charged by 90% of rangers has always been quite fair in spite of the outragously inflated prices there are on most servers.
Also, do you think that this will have an effect on the way people hunt, I.e. bring back the old fashion hunting groups (which i miss *sob*). Personally i can't see it happening until the CB has been completed.
Solo group nerf: good or bad for rangers?
Thanks

We don't set the high prices so we cannot drop them either. It's the crafters who offer much and maybe they will offer less soon.
I however don't really care, I still have banked enough to "survive" for a few month (or more) without any income

Gotta agree with darmokVtS.. I've never set a price. I look at what's offered, and then decide if I want to hunt it and how much.
Also, I've heard from many crafters that they don't plan to drop prices. I can see them lowering the cpu they offer though, as many people "complain" about the solo group/credit nerf causing them to "have to take up scout to make any money in this game".
If you'll check different galaxy forums, you'll start to see people asking what resources to hunt to make money. I predict scout will be the next fotm and for crafters to find more people to harvest for them. (and with more combat/scouts, an increase in the number of people who can outharvest a ranger)

Yup, am with thingy up there.... I see that a crafter is looking for x and offering y credits. Depending on what am doing, how difficult it is, whether I can be bothered, how broke I am (like NOW! Dang starships... eesh) I'll maybe do it or go do something else.
I bung some 2cpu stuff on the bazaar every once in a while, that's as close as i come to setting a price.
As for 'how will the solo-group nerf affect x profession'? Well, like the Sergeant says, you just do the job that's in front of you. Stuff changes, it'll change subtly before you get used to it. Then it'll change again.
