Greetings fellow Rangers, I post this idea because I think that the Devs will never give us faster flat terrain speed, the imbalance in combat will be huge. Also faster BUrst run will have the same effect but in a lesser scale. Shortening the burst run timer sounds pretty good but then if it is shortened too much you could kite any fast creature,caussing a pve imbalance. I hope that my next idea can give us faster speed, but nopt an unfair advantage in combat.

The new Ranger Sprint ability will let the ranger run faster than regular movement, but slower than burst run. This ability cannot be used while in combat and it will wear off as soon as you engage any combat (even defending yourself). The ability can have a timer like burst run, but It will last much longer than burst run(up to two or three times as much). Ranger sprint timer would be 6 minutes at novice, reducing one minute per skill box until you get to Master. If the ranger uses burst run there will be an 8 minute timer for both Ranger Sprint and Burst Run regardless of skill, so the ranger has to wise what skill to use at all times. There should probably be a timer from Ranger sprint to burst runbut definitly not as long.

I think this could be done with out impactiong balance too much( except that we would be making more money from mission ). The squad leader is getting a new command that will add speed to the whole group. I think we should get what I suggested, wich is not that different.This is all my opinion and I could be wrong,

Please feel free to critizice my post and agree/disagree with any part of it, but if you do please state why, and how it could be better.

Thanks and happy hunting
