Yesterday, after the last patch, I was hunting on Tat. I set up a FB camp, started meditating, and went AFK for a few minutes. I got back just in time to see myself getting incapped by 4 Scyks in the middle of my camp (the Scyks spawned after I set up the camp).

Last night I was with some friends on Endor and had Mereks walking through my FB camps like they weren't even there. I haven't been a Master Ranger for long, but I haven't had problems with reds coming into my secure camps until the last patch.

Anyone else having this issue?

You've just been lucky until know, then

I could be mistaken, but it has been my experience that the HTFB seems to actually draw aggros like moths to a flame

I've always had this problem with camps.

They simply do NOT work the way we think they should.

I remember a few weeks ago, I put up an Improved camp so I could heal and went AFK for a bio-break.

Came back about 10 minutes later to find a dead shaupaut in my camp, and a ton of ouchies that I didn't have before.

Having mentioned that, I wonder if maybe that's why camps don't work the way we expect them to. Maybe the Dev's don't want us using the camp as a "safety zone" on Dathomir while we wander AFK.

No Antagio, you have been very lucky until now. That part in the manual that states that agressive creatures are repelled by a FB is a reference to how they set it up in beta. That is not true. FB and HTFB do NOT repel agressives.

Rather then adjust the AI to engor the FB when attacked, they instead removed the ability. We have been protesting the change ever sense.

Ranger is not a profession. It's a lifestyle.

I had the same thing happen last night. Dropped a camp on Endor, sat down to heal a bit, and suddenly I'm being attacked by a boar wolf. Pissed me off 'cause it broke my camp. I got rid of the boar-wolf and proceeded away from that area.. And, brilliant fellow that I am, set up amidst three arachne warrior lairs. Nothing attacked this time, because I made certain my maskscent was up.. But I did have an arachne warrior stroll through the middle of my camp to go visit one of the other lairs. It was.. amusing.

This is probably number one on the Rangers' top 5 bug list. Camps have not repelled aggro creatures as described in the player manual since beta. I am hoping beyond hope that this "bug" not "wish list item" is fixed before we have to wait for the devs pay any attention to us again.

Yep...

not to beat a dead horse... hopefully this is one of the changes that the devs are looking to implement/ fix in an upcoming patch/ hotfix when they promised that camps are being re-done to make them worth while when you no longer need them to call pets or droids

"Camps not repelling aggressives was one of the bugs ignored on our top 5 list."

Ignored? They replied to all three of those issues with:

"These problems will be looked into and fixed up as soon as possible."

That was my bad on the formatting of the answers.
