After the serves finally came up yesterday, I went out on a hunting mission for an armoursmith who wants hides.

I have mass produced traps, by making them in my equipment factories in crates .So I area track to a nice spawn, mask scent, then start uncasing traps and lining them up on my task bar. OMG, when I try and uncase adhesive mesh traps I get a system message saying this item has now been removed from the game and should be destroyed. So I check the ranger-trapping tree and discover that yep, adhesive mesh is no longer on the ranger skill tree.

I just couldn’t understand why the devs have silently nerffed the ranger yet again. We have to put up with a totally useless skill tree, i.e., ranger camps. And now they start taking our traps from us.
There has been no announcement in the pub 10 data about this removal, no explanation or rational for this strange decision.

So we are just simply left wondering, why remove one of our most useful traps? I think we deserve an explanation. Can you imaging the furore, if they removed say the bounty hunter LLC with no explanation?

What is going to happen with the next patch? No more flash bombs or sonic bombs?

THANKS A LOT DEVS. 1 more nail in the ranger coffin.

WTH? This has to be a mistake... and I just put more crates on our Hunter's Hollow vendor too. Calc, get your butt in gear and check on this!

I thought Adhesive Mesh traps were in the scout line? Either way, that doesn't explain the system message you got. If this is true, that was my favorite trap.

Odds are you just ran into yet another bug, nothing more. In the past the same thing has happened to grenades and other weapons. The devs fixed it then and if it's a bug they will likely fix it again. If removing the trap is not in the update notes assume bug and send in the bug report, no need to panic.

Hi - when you say 'no more adhesive mesh' in the ranger skill tree, you mean the scout skill tree right? Don't you get them for scout trapping iv?

My alt (master DE) has gotten a similiar error message with some of the things that he has made in a factory before -- somehow the crates of stuff get bugged and he can't pull stuff out of them. It could just be this, but it adhesive mesh is gone from the scout tree, then maybe it is something more....

Did you try making an adhesive mesh trap by hand and using it? If that works, do another (small) factory run and see if those crates work. Also, see if some of you other crates from the factory run you talk about above work -- in my experience one or two crates will be broken, but the others will work.

Now, if the crates are indeed bugged, then you can try submitting a CSR ticket. The csrs will then confiscate the crates, presumably try what you have already tried (ie., getting something out of them), say "wow - you're right it is broken, submit a bug report," but you'll never see the crates or their contents again. At least this was my experience...

This is potentially quite serious. I don't offen get too worked up over the changes that are made to the game, even those that affect Ranger. However, if this is indeed accurate, this would really irk me. We've been very good about holding ourselves together and not making a large fuss, but this could push a lot of people the wrong way.

I'd want to do some research before I did anything, but thank you for the heads up.

By the way, Adhesive Mesh is technically in the Scout tree, as someone else mentioned. It should be located at Trapping IV in scout. If it's not there, we need to find out what's going on. I don't want to jump the gun on something this big.

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.

Im sure its a bug that Calc and Brisc need to go make the devs aware of. There is no logic to pulling the trap unless we are going to be able to use them PvP and they dont want us stopping people in place. But thats just a conspiracy.

This isnt the first time this has happened take deep breaths learn some yoga and im sure our correspondents will get it hotfixed

The smuggler nerf went in yesterday where they will not allow them to use slicing tools directly from crate. Could be that somehow that messed up other crate items...best to check though I have some crated traps Ill check tonight.

How is it a nerf when it wasnt working as intented? No other profession could use an item from a crate. Thats called a fix not a nerf.
