Thats what we pay in, Monkeys..


It is a great group to be with... speaking as someone who started as a hunter and ended up one of the huntmasters. efficient, fast and powerful.. the experience bundled up in a full hunt, put together with a few simple rules of how to handle things and we can take on just about any MOB on the server with no loss of life. At one point while hunting on naboo we started running into the Albatross so for kicks we started taking them out.. I beleive it was 8 in two weeks.

The feathers were a nice bonus in that we all split the money from the sale.

Organization and structure, and the realization we are out there to make monkey and focus on THAT and not XP makes for some pretty nice hunts.

You mean like shaupaut monkies? They're annoying, but they sure can dance!

And when they implement character server transfers, I might move my Wookiee pike/scout over here. Sounds like a blast!

And you have to take them to Delta, for the latest exchange rate into credits. And with the monkey shortage Ariven pointed out, Delta could really use the exchange.

Hey, all you scouts and rangers on Bria, have you heard of the Rangers of Bria(RoB)???


Well we are an organization of hunters and gatherers, that take large orders for quality resources, and get it for the customer. The group is fun, pretty well organized, you make new friends, and can make tons of monkeys(that can later be traded for credits :smileyvery-happy


We have the Hunt Masters that take the orders, and plan/organize the hunts. We send out notification to the list of hunters for a planned hunt. Our hunts tend to be very well layed out, we have some rules, and as long as they are followed, we all do great. Rarely do we loose someone, even on places like Dath, and we are fast and efficient. At the end of the hunt, or when you have to leave, the Hunt Master will buy what you harvested at the price we are selling it to the customer. Our prices are up there, but still competitive, and we don't gouge, so people like buying from us. Our average price range is from 20-50cpu. Most of stuff is going for 40-50cpu though, for really good quality stuff.


So you make good money, make good scouting, tapping, and survival xp, trainers right there, and have fun. We have been around for a long while now. With the flux of people in both scout and ranger professinos, our hunter lists are dwindling. We would like to see some more hunters join us and be successful. Occasionally we will do a "for fun" hunt, and hit a dungeon or some big dangerous mob. Last time we hit the Genosian Cave shortly after it opened and did well in there, and we all had a great time.


We have a main post in Bria forum http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=Bria&message.id=287412that talks about us more and how we opperate. We post a weekly hunt thread in Bria for customers to put in orders, and for the hunters to talk.


The two currently active Hunt Masters are me, Teranus, and Morgon. So feel free to contact us with more info.

That's a darn good idea.

Actually, more than for the money (which most scouts and rangers have plenty of anyway), it sounds like a cool way to meet like-minded people and hunt some tough creatures.

Way to add content.

Every time I log in I'm terrified they changed the game to Dance Dance Revolution without telling anyone after holding a "focus group"

We hunt for specific resources. When the hunt is over we buy them from you, but ONLY if you want to sell them. Some hutners are doctors or people with Doc alts who are there to harvest for themselves. In fact they are sometimes our customers too.

We are happy when you loot something cool, but we aren't there to confiscate your loot

The only time loot was grouped was when, AS A GROUP, we decided to kill a albatross (Well, several albatross, over two weeks) and to have a single person sell the feathers and split the cash.. that was decided up front before we started the slaughter, and was a unanimous decision by all members of the hunt.

You can contact myself (Morgon) or Teranus in game by either email or /tell for details or to get on our lists.

Payout is based on customer buy price. If we charge the customer 30 CPU for a resource then YOU get 30 cpu. Yes we could make a profit off of you, but why? We make money by harvesting too.. this is more of a cooperative effort to get large stacks of resources than it is to gouge our fellow scouts and rangers..
