Debating with myself about going either Master Rifles, Master Ranger, Novice Medic or Master Rifles, Master Pistoleer, Scout 4340, Novice Medic.


Pistoleer will give me more specials, sure - but my toolbarsare only so big and trying to navigate through them in combat to get the 'right' one is a pain.


Heading out into the wilds, tracking down prey and dispatching them for their hide/bones/meat does sound inviting, but does Master Ranger give a significant improvment in this over Scout 4340 ?


Are traps actually worthwhile? Can they be used against NPCsas well ascreatures ?


A lot of the time I'm on at different times to the rest of my PA (natural grouping partners), would a Master Ranger's skills be in demand from other groups?


Or would Master Rifles, Master Pistoleer, Scout 4340 at least let me bring in good stacks of resources off lower level creatures? say lvl 50 creatures (max lvl on Naboo) for instance if I was grouped with my harvesting Droid?


thanks in advance for any advice,

As was said on the Ranger forum - it is all about what you want to do with it. If you want to be a harvester Ranger 0040 is a very good choice. If you want the lifestyle, Master Ranger is the way to go.

In my opinion Scout traps are the best traps out there. Ranger traps are iffy and are AoE so cause a lot of aggro. Maskscent does not work vs. NPCs. Camo sometimes works vs. NPCs.

Thanks Vorpaks,



I'm now Master Scout, Ranger 0044, Master Rifles and working up the last two trees of Ranger towards Master
