Hehe,
My motive for posting this previously wasn't to criticize, hope you didn't take it that way. I was just sitting around doing some posting and for some reason it struck me that though we might not be seeing major changes to the profession in the revamp there were a few things we'd need to keep an eye on.
I can never say enough how great of a job you do Delta. I was just trying to be helpful and having recently been a bit concerned with the direction the Devs seem to have for the professions (scout and ranger) I just wanted to voice my thoughts a bit.
I realize that there is still some time before any documents get circulated to the public (and even to the private) and on top of that Sandbox is a ways off too.
I'm sure people have been thinking about this already too, just wanted to make sure.
Keep up the great work!

Wild,
Ack! No - I didn't think of it as criticism at all.
I'm just frustrated that I can't go into more detail for you guys, or even say something to the effect of "don't worry about it".
This is just one situation where we absolutely can't afford to get any misconceptions out there.
Thanks for the support bro - and we'll have Scout testers specficially keeping an eye on our stuff out there.

one thing that i haven't seen anyone in the scout or ranger forums talk about is the doctor *PENALTY* when healing and buffing in a camp. this is especially important when buffing. a doctor gains benefits from eating food (bivoli), wearing tailor clothing (active biosensors), and using a droid (the 110 medical mod). These things all stack to help get better buffs.....However, all that is negated in a scout camp which starts at a 0.6 modifier at novice. the ranger high tech field base has a 1.0 modifier, but still cuts off the last 10% bonus from a droid.
scout camps should give a *bonus* to medical healing and buffing that stacks with all the other bonuses. in the GCW battles, a scout or ranger would become an important part of the equation by helping the group get stronger buffs.
while we're at it... we might even get musician and dancer buffs to get a bonus in camps also. (and keep BF healing in the cantinas as a possible trade off?)

I would definitely like to see the camps heal BF but not sure if they should give it to the scouts or not maybe to the Rangers. And for all the people that keep saying they shouldnt because of the need for entertainers, what about the tkas who can heal wounds cure disease and cure poison. It doesnt hurt the doctors any. It just allows more role playing being able to be like a hermit and not have to go into populated cities to heal bf. There are so many cities that you can walk into and there not be any entertainers to heal your bf so you have to port to a populated city like theed just to heal your bf. I think we should have it but i think it should go to the rangers.
