Hey why not? Bounty hunters have them and it sounds like they might be creating them anyhow.
My question to you is: What kind of missions would be Ranger only?
I was thinking something like asking a Ranger to harvest and return a certain type of resource with a particular quality level. Or tracking (laffing as I write that, sorry) a certain breed of critter and noting its location.
I would like to hear what ideas you might have so that we might inspirea dev to create some cool Ranger content for us.
Cheers,

That would be a cool idea. I dont know about anyone else , maybe I am bugged, but my missions dont go above 1600 for credits anymore. The missions could also be more dangerous areas since we do have mask scent to get by aggressive creatures. Maybe a little further away since we have terrain negotiation also.

SolarWraith, come to Talus and do destroy missions there. I frequently get missions paying 2500-3000 credits each. And they really aren't that hard. The only problem is usually you have to run 2500K+ meters out of town to get to the objectives.

I agree. Another mission type would be to Explore an area. A month ago on Starsider my friend got a mission for an NPC on Lok to go about 8Km south, scout the area, and return for reward. I think having these missions on the hard planets for availible would encourage players to go furthur than just a KM or two outside the starports.

I have thought about this one and agree with it for some time. I think each class should have missions specific to their class. Even if everyone except bounty hunter still went to the standard mission terminal.
What is the hard part though as I thought about it? Not everyone is the same profession.
The way I would see is by the title you set for yourself. If I set mine as Master Ranger then I should get Master Ranger type missions. If I set my title to Trap Master, then my missions should reflect that title by having me trap and skin 800 units of a specific hide.
Each class or title is unique for its missions and payouts.
What would the problems be?: When a bunch of different classes get together for a group mission "frollick", then not everyone could participate. It's the same as how no one else can participate in Bounty Hunter missions.
I like the concept though.

Forage missions? I wish this game was smart enough to make foraging dependent on area, rather than completely random. Would make a valid mission here if you had to travel to a certain area and gather roots.

My best is 4k, and CrazedDurnis to boot. Problem is the distance: 2.5k. Pick 2 next to each other and they go fast tho. I only get this holding my Rifles, that is my highest combat prof. I have to roll up many missions tho: they don't always show up right away.
