Ranger Archive

Hi,

I played a bit with a Charbuilder to see what options were there when I want to stay creature centric. I'm not into PvP and I'm not sure how well the new Ranger would help me filling my contracts on meat/hide/bone.

So I thought I have a look at another addional combat profession to add to my template to be more effective in hunting.

Now I'm Master Ranger/Master Rifle, I thought ok I drop Ranger and get Pistol or Carbine added instead of Master Ranger. To my surprise I ended up with CL 73. I hope there ist something wrong in the CL calculation in the char builder I used.

The only way to stay CL80 was getting BH,CH or SL which isn't too bad but not exactly what I was looking for. I hoped to combine Rifle with some Pistol and Carbine.

Are there any plans to move our CL modifiers to scout too? Or at least some of them so a Master Scout plus almost two combat professions will get you CL80.

I've done exactly the same thing and yes, I'm concerned about this to. In order to build the "Creature Centric Ranger" with Master Scout, you are "forced" to pick up SL, CH or BH ( the professions that branch of Scout ) and an elite combat profession in order to keep CL 80. Or you could pick 2 of SL, CH, BH to get some extra SP but no CL80 template will give you enough SP to unlock a your force slot and only the second option will give you enough to pick up novice medic.

It's the same predicament Master Rangers have been in since the FS branches were introduced and now the CL just makes it worse.

When the time comes, we should corner Vorpaks to see if we can get Master Scout CL boosted or CL added to the FS skills.
