I'm not whining, I swear. I glad that our profession will be that much more elite with the huge jump in XP requirements on 3 of the skill trees. I'm glad that camp grinding will no longer be nessesary. I don't concider anything they did to us a nerf, quite the contrary, we picked up many new cool things.

It's just...WHY OH WHY couldn't they have waited until I made Master before implementing these changes?<sigh>

Are they implemented yet? or still on the test server?

As of last night I didnt notice this change.

NM..i just saw the patch notes elsewhere. Sorry to hear it for you

I am as you are most likely very happy about these changes though...so we have something on the bright side to look at

I'm only a little sad that I didn't insist on getting Wayfaring III before the patch, since I had the XP but was waiting to find a ranger who can train me. Now I've got a bit more XP to go... but I'm not too worried because making camps give me XP and a bunch of other things, so I think it kinda balances out in the end.

im 2-2-2-4 in ranger and have a alittle ways to go now.. but its not too bad. Hopefully the increase in XP in the Tracking and Wayfaring lines will keep the number of new rangers down..... i kinda like being in the minority.

"i kinda like being in the minority."

- Sadly, we were only a minority because of the public perception that we provided no valuable skills over the Scout line.

- Now that we have some (but not all) of our up-and-coming changes, I expect more people to take notice of the profession.

/agree NRaas.

I've been working my arse off trying to finish the three lines before the new xp requirements went in.....and I did, last night at midnight I trained in Trapping IV!! WOOOOHOOOOO. Only two more boxes of Frontiering and I'll have that master box now.

I am at 4/3/4/3. I am Soooo happy about the changes (sorry for the folks that this did not benefit).



When I logged off last night I was 13hours sitting in a camp shy of Survival IV and I had the xp for Trapping IV.

I lost 30k of Trapping xp and gained 20k of survival xp when I logged back in. This is so much better. I should have the xp for Survival IV from making traps and camps and with a bit of hunting I think I can take care of the Trapping xp in a few hours.

OK, what is the new xp requirement, especially for Wayfaring III? I spent my time shopping last night instead of getting the last 3k xp I needed. I bet I need like 33K xp now, right? And has Scouting xp yield gone down along with the hide/bone/meat yields?

Don't understand why these kinds of changes were made. So few people want to be Ranger now anyway. I was gonna do it instead of BH, but BH looks much more attractive after this last patch.

Bummer.
