That's up in the air.

The outdoorsman proposal has some great ideas in it. No doubt about it. But it tries too hard to cling to the notion of the original scouting tree and its skillset, and for that reason still makes us nothing but slightly more powerful scouts. When you look at it from a skillpoint standpoint, the camping and trapping lines of ranger would still be extremely undesirable (in my eyes) on a skill-point-spending bases for what is proposed in that proposal. I think if you picture what a ranger would be like if he had that skillset, and compare him to a scout with a bunch of combat and medic experience, the ranger would still be a very poor hunter by comparison, and that's what I'd like to see changed primarily.
