Ranger Archive

I feel the same way. I remember the first time I soloed a seething bol, the first graul i soloed back when they were really tough.

Now, I went and kicked a graul mangler into the ground and there was no real sense of satisfaction. I was unbuffed and I wasnt afraid of dying. Dant has truly become fluffy and pretty, and the only thing that really scares me are the nightsisters.

I kinda cant wait until the player side gets fixed...although the harvesting business has been flourishing because of the easy kills, the challenge planets have been, well, less than challenging lately. The only reason I buff anymore is so that I dont have much downtime while harvesting critters. I think that you and me calc should sit on the porch, drink lemonade and shake our canes at those teenage rangers blasting their music and growing their hair long....

I do hope that when players are brought back down to a manageable level, Rangers are brought up to compensate for those who still like to hunt solo. Since I have been around from the beginning I remember when people would scream and shout when they actually solo'd a krayt.

I really want the combat balance to get finished as well. Since not everyone is as enlightened as us , I highly recommend not visiting the combat profession boards when it gets pushed through.

It's gonna get real messy...

Yep,

right now my challenges come with swapping combat professions, BH, pistoleer, carbineer, currently TKM, soon to be a pikeman, fencer etc....

*Searches for his cane..can't get up out of his rocker to find it* I want the pubnams back on Endor. When I was a CH, back in the day, I feared those lil buggers more than anything. Now, with the wusification of Endor and Dant, I agree that the challange is gone. I would love to run into a ticked off Gorax.

On another note, last night, I just had gotten fresh buffs, ran out to Dath, and became engaged with 4 plain ole Rancors. Strange thing happened, I got off about 3 hits, and was on the ground, dead. They went through me like I had no buffs, or any defenses from Master Fencer. This happen to anyone else?

Ok, fun times on Dath.

Looking for herbie. I get a maklok mission. There is a freaking random Rancor spawn lair like 5 feet from my mission. I gots rancors, I gots makloks... I am a shooting fool. Then the ancient flyers come over the hill. Holy snikees, I am shooting and scooting, harvesting my lil buns off. Things are dying left, right and center and I make sure I get one shot into everything to harvest.

I got 2k of herbie, 3k of hides and completed one 7k mission.

The brag part- no buffs, no armor, no power ups even. Didn't even have to use burst run. Just maskscent and run like a crazed loonie.

Luck, oh yes. Fun, oh yes.

Hope y'all get the same.

That's my kind of fighting, JB. This ranger's way too cheap for buffs and armor.

Cheap? So it isn't just me...good. heh..4 million in the bank and I still won't pay more than 40k for a gun. Just sad..

try 450k in the bank and I won't spend any money on anything

I sorely need to get myself onto a long combat grind.

Yeah, I used to be like that. Managed to do the Imp theme park and make 1 million off the schematics auctioning. Sold a few random force crystals, early holos. Occasionally a few 100k from meat hunts when the resources are good. Sometimes I wonder where it all comes from.. Guess I'm just lucky at times.
