I noticed mine were abandoning today

They *used* to be perma. You could set one up for a group as a base of operations and go off hunting. Parts of the group could come and go and your combat didn't abandon the camp. I had one up at our PA coumpound for 19 hours once (only the server reset took it down). The down side was that you could not place another camp while the base was up....a fair exchange I thought.

But alas, it seems they poof now......

Intended or not, it was very nice having a perma base camp.

I've noticed that too. I've also noticed my wounds not healing in my high tech field base...are wounds still healing in the other camps?

Luckily the are going to fix camp healing in the big upcoming update. It was in the scout message but I'm sure it applys to ranger camps too

"Camps now auto-heal faster as their level increases (i.e. a high tech base heals faster than a two person kit)."

and I also really like these other quotes:

"Bigger camps now grant xp slightly faster than smaller camps."
"The rate at which camps accumulate XP to award when they are disbanded has been increased"
"Camps will now properly give XP."

Looks like camp exp is going to be coming much better.

My wounds were healing in my Improved Camp Kit, but that is a scout kit. I just find the higher resource cost of the Ranger camp too prohibitive for solo camping.

Both of the Field Bases should be permanent. After all, they are Field Bases, not camps. It'smore thanuseful to have a persistant base of operations for your group to fight from. Not to mention that these take way more resources to make than the previous camps, rather expensive ones compared to hide and bone.

Last night, it seemed like my wounds were healing significantly slower than they had previously. I got deathblowed last night and didn't have a clone on the planet (endor was having some problems on bloodfin last night to say the least lol). So I go back to Corellia, hit the cantina and took care of the BF. Then I headed out and dropped a field base and after close to 30 minutes, I'd only healed maybe 20 wounds. My wounds were dramatic so maybe that has something to do with it but I KNOW it used to be faster than this.
