Hi guys, I just finished Scout and desided to go into Ranger because I have enjoyed my time with the Scout proffession. I was wondering two things, one, where are there some Ranger trainers (I'm currently on Tatooine), and also was wondering opinions on a good companion proffession for Ranger, I've been looking at mostly Rifleman and Bounty Hunter, with a 0003 in pistoleer. Any advise from experience? Thanks.

Check the stickies for a list of trainers.
As for good accompanying professions. Check the stickies and read thru the first couple of pages of the forum, should see a few suggestions there.
End of the day tho, go with the ones you enjoy playing. A rifleman /BH combo is pretty good. Gives you range, damage and some useful specials. It's what I went for. OTOH, others have gone for MBH with bit sof other stuff tacked on, it suits their playstyle. There are MCH rangers and, I've a REALLY vague memory of reading that somebody had a doctor/ranger?
You're, hopefully, going to spend a long time living with your ranger toon, no point getting stuck with a combat mix that you don't enjoy just because some random folk said it was 'the best'.

I like my M rifles/MBH/SL 0300 template. The SL gives some nice defensive bonuses. For a long time i played Swords/Ranger, which was a lot of fun too.
As for best it's gotta be Ranger/(fill-in-the-blank)

MRanger/ MBH/ SL 0300
i do very well for myself vs. critters and i can stand up against a squad of stormies without getting too worried.
good defense, good offense, and TN to boot.
oh yeah... a frelling arsenal of weapons at my disposal.

speaking of the frelling arsenal-- it just got expanded. The new heavy version of the LLC apparently is a bit better than the Laser Rifle. Talking to a WS last night, she made one that was like 471-963 base with a speed of 2.6 or so. put a P'up on that puppy and you're max damage would be very nice. Slice for speed and....well, you know the rest.

I am Master Rifleman/Master Ranger, and I enjoy it. The rifle specials are quite powerfull. The only problem is I die quite fast (I really hope Ranger gets defenses in rewamp).

Congrats on the Master Scout.
At first, Phe'nix was told 471-1963/2.6. My jaw nearly dropped when he told me those numbers
.
As for choosing professions, just pick up something you think you will enjoy. If you don't enjoy it, pick a different profession. They all have advantages and disadvantages. It mostly depends upon your playstyle.
