That's a superb idea. However for it to work, perhaps the function of that camp needs to change a bit.


For starters, that camp needs to last at least 2 hours before it disappears. Or perhaps if it's "idle" for 2 hours, then it "shuts down", otherwise it will stay up as long as someone is in it.


The most obvious thing however is the need for camps to stay active whenyou're in combat. Otherwise you're just pulling out a camp just to get a terminal after every series of mission runs.

I haven't seen this anywhere, so not sure if this has been suggested.


But shouldn't the High Tech Field Base come with a general mission terminal? We could put it down in the middle of nowhere and run missions from it. This would make these camps a whole lot more useful than they are now, and since they are removing the need to have a camp when calling your pet or vehicle, it would give us Rangers very useful skill.


Thoughts on this?

Would it be possible to add this to the Outdoorsman proposal?


I wassuprised it wasn't in it already. Actually, I was suprised that this isn't in the game already. I certainly feel this would make the Ranger a highly sought after part of any hunting party.

It would be cool if a camp stayed active even if the creator isnt in camp as long as he is within maby 2k because it would still suck to halfto remake a camp after every set of missions when you could just set one down grab missions then once your done with the missions head back heal up and get another set.

Am I the only one that uses camps to heal my own wounds? The rest of you have Medic skills or TKA meditate or something?

Damn, I only wish I could give you more than 5 stars, lol. By far the best, most useful suggestion I've read in this forum.


As far as healing, well, very occasionally I'll use a tent for that, but even that will be useless with the tent nerf (or whatever you want to call it) as I'll be able to whip out my droid and heal to my hearts content without a camp. In reality, the only 2 reasons I use any camps right now are to haul out droids, pets, vehicles, and to get frontiering xp. I would just love to have an actual reason to make use of all those 14 skill points I have invested in that. Something that doesn't involve some ultra-complex crafting process add-ons that I'd never use anyway.


Who do we have to kill to get this done? hehe
