So I was watching this program on the discovery channel about the development of stealth aircrafts. They explain that stealth do not actuarially mean "invisibility" but just "decreased effective range of radars", and that edibility got me thinking. They showed some graphics of how the diminished effected range of radars created holes between the radar transmitters that could be used to get past them.
For some reason when I saw that animation avoiding eargo's popped in to my head and I could imagine how a rangers "decreases argo range" would allow us to slip past NPC's and creatures alike where other had to fight thair way.

So this would be my suggestion:
  • Camouflage and mask scent can be applied simultaneously.

  • Camouflage will reduce the argo range depending on skill, say 1m per 3 points of Camou.

  • Mask scent will keep working as it do, but the range at witch the check is made is increased by camou if it is applied.

  • If a ranger apply camou to others they will get an reduced argo range according to the rangers skills, but will not get the chance to avoid argo that mask sent gives.

  • Camou will not work while riding a vehicle, but will work while riding a mount, provided the mount is camouflaged as well

  • The Rescue will be changed so it have a chance of braking argo, provided the target of the Rescue of the argo range pf the attacker.

  • If the ranger is within argo range of the attacker while using the skill the ranger will take over the argo. If the ranger is not with in combat range the attacker will use the hatred system to find a new target

  • If rangers uses Rescue with friendly targeted, or when targeting them self. The skill will brake argo for the attacker of the ranger, provided ranger is outside argo range of the target.


Yes I know thair is all pipe dreams, and such. But I thought I would share it anyway.

Oh I forgot to mention that Camou should stack with the rifleman conceal skill, to reduce the range they need to be from mobs and other players.

I like that addition of being able to camo your mount..not a bike. Get us all back on mounts!! Like it should be. We have actually talked about all of use riding mounts more often instead of bikes in our guild(DSR) this would be a great incentive.
I have heard variants of many of your ideas, keep it up.
