Ranger Archive

Hey guys,

I think i'm finally going to break down, and give SOE more money by getting a second account.

the extra money is the bad news.

the good news is that i just came up with a potential template for my new character, and this new template will allow my main, Oreet, pick up master Ranger.

here's the template i thought up, give me any feedback you might have on it:

Master Artisan

Master Tailor (this is still debatable, but first off, no hotpants will EVER be crafted)

Merchant 4-4-4-2

Politician 2-4-2-4

I am going to ATTEMPT to get my city to vote the new guy in as mayor, so that my main can drop Politician, and get back the skill points it is costing me. it will get me enough points to Master Ranger, and possibly get a little more Medic.

I chose Tailor for the Crafting profession, because i do not want to have to dump millions of credits into getting uber resources for armor, weapons, food, ect. and as far as I know, stats on hides and other resources for Tailor don't really mean anything.

I might consider Droid Engineer instead. I will not consider Shipwright, because first we already have a guildie in town that is a 2-2-2-2 shipwright and is doing a great job already crafting amazing ship parts.

I already have a Master Bio-Engineer friend that i can get BE tissues for very reasonable prices so i can make some good BE clothing.

And as I said, if i go tailor, i WILL NEVER craft a single pair of HotPants, EVER!! This means that all Rangers would be welcome to browse my shop.

When i get home i'm going to read some of the merchant skill boxes a little more, and see if these are the best skill boxes to spend skill points on.

so, anyone have any thoughts on this template? i want this to be a strictly non-combat character, that will very rarely even leave our city on Lok (except maybe for some advertising and hooking noobs up with new threads while i'm grinding.

I'm almost tempted to recommend having your characters go to war. One will be the Ranger who fights very strongly against hotpants, the other will be a Tailor pushing hawtpants wherever they go. Have houses nearby each other in the city with war like setups (shrines to hawtpants, camopants shrines, camo thrown around all over the place, signs of invasions, etc).

Looks quite nice, though. Tailor always seemed like a fun profession to try--you don't have to always worry about stats and you get to make nice clothes.

be sure if you do have the war to make them twins.... BTW I always liked Tailor and with merchant you can set up a Bouncer that says: "If your looking for Hotpants... GET OUT." Good template

i got my second account, and decided on a template.

Master Artisan

Master Droid Engineer

Master Tailor

and the rest of the points go to Merchant.

I suggest Merchant 3440 since you only really NEED 2 vendors. However if you want more vendors than that maybe 3044
