Yes, the title is correct, I believe we need a Ranger HAT.
I believe the Rangers deserve a selfish item that only Rangers can use.
Is it eye candy? Yes it is.
Is it Ranger only? Yes it is.
Do we want it now? Yes we do.
Art Design? Design should be a combination of Fedora/Indiana Jones Style/Cowboy Hat. Low brim that gives Rangers that mysterious look. With a mini-cape/veil along the back of the hat just shoulder length is to eliminate the problem the Imperial Hat has with hair styles.
The SOLE purpose of the mini-cape is for appearance and to remove the hair style art work problem.
Who makes it? Master Ranger, any color.
What is it made from?Bone, Hide.
Who can wear it? Novice Ranger and up ONLY.
Sockets? ZERO
Abilities? ZERO
Reason? EYE CANDY
The point of the Ranger Hat is a symbol of Rangerdom. This community has waited a LONG time for a Revamp and we all know we are going to be waiting a lot longer. The news that the Combat Revamp AND JTL has zero to do with Rangers as a class hurt alot of us deep inside, but, being Rangers we carried on.
This small, zero balance affecting game item is for appearances only and would go along way to making the Rangers feel like we are still remembered in this game.
A little bit of art work time is all that is needed, just modify the art off a sunguard or helm.
I know, asking for art work projects is selfish and demanding, well, dangitt, we deserve some eye candy.
Some may say this is an un-rangerish request, fine, I will shoulder that burden this one time.

Can we also get the ability to chew on long pieces of grass and have a new chat type called /drawl
"Well howdy partner. That's a right nice mount you got there", Phe'nix says with a Southern drawl.

i LOVE this idea. the best part about it is it's total and utter uselessness in-game other than appearance and a way of spotting a Ranger. I want a Ranger HAT!!!
right now i run around in tusken boots, tusken gloves, long sleeve tusken robe, and a tan sunguard (us rodians can't wear tusken helmets) this outfit is perfect camoflage for running around on Tatooine and Lok (my city is on Lok).
and the /drawl chat style is another great idea. and the chewing on grass. can we also grow REALLY long grizzly beards? (even us rodians)

But in order to wear the hat do we have to be declared overt rangers or can we do it with our non-ranger titles up?

Actually the problem is the wookie one requires alderaan decidious wood from the south-eastern part of the planet grown be an old man with a lot of warts. That or the component can be looted out of trash cans in the nightsister lairs.
