I would really like to have this removed, in no way does it relate to a squad leader at all. At novice scout we can still make camps yes but we don't need the whole line. It serves no use. We're squad leaders. Not rangers.
can we have the survival line removed so we can have another 14 sp?

I don't want this to removed becose the way i see it.. is that builing up a camp belongs to a squad leader , a squad leader must be able to thake care of his squad , if there is no ranger in his group.
and besides it would have to many side efects for our revamp.

okay, here's a comromise, either we get fortifications or take out the survival tree....one or the other, but if the rangers are going to scream bloody murder about fortifications and cost us the only usefuladdition (okay, not the ONLY one) for our profession, then the skill tree associated with that hopeful addition will have no place in SL profession, plenty of other hybrids only take one line from two base professions as well.
on top of that, it's yet another one of those things that will continue to be a pain the butt 'until the combat rebalance' (ugh....don't get me started) because nobody groups (well, its hard to find groups, how's that?) so you sit in your camp by yourself for 15 mins (riding my back in and out of it) just to get a measly dent in the xp bar, i could spend 15 minutes doing a grind of something in just about any other profession and make serious headway (hardcore crafting with 3 tools at once, or meds with a tumbler, etc.)
I am not hologrinding into SL, i am interested in offering combat/movement bonuses because i like putting the big group together on dant MOP, and this would give me an edge when advertising that i have slots available; butI would look into other areas of the profession as well if I could put them to use if some hunting groups were more prevelant.

Id like to see the survival line dropped so that we can spend the skill points on some other more useful things. I could care less about the grind time, I had it done in 2 hours. You can craft tents while you sit in a tent and you get survival xp for crafting the tents. This makes it go by much faster.

If you remove the scout survival prerequisite , then SL is no longer an "elite" hybrid profession.

why is it no longer a elite hybrid profession. First of all elite professions are just something that is graduated above a regular base profession. Since you have to train in something before you can be an SL that makes it elite.
Second it is hybrid because it requires two base profession of marksman and scout. So i dont know what the hell you are talking about.
The problem with SL is that it requires so much without being a combat class. At least BH and Commando which require a whole mastered profession as well as training in another base profession are combat classes in themselves. We require 15 points of novice marksman, 14 points of ranged support, 15 points of novice scout, 14 points of survival, and 14 points of exploration all before we make squad leader and that is all needed without even taking up a combat class. Howver if they make the profession amazingly usefull like we are pushing for it will be worth it totally.

Damn , is that all you do is follow me around to flame me ?
Elite , beacuase it requires soo many points to getto by going through 2 different profs.
2 different proffesions makes it Hybrid.
Is wot the Hell im talking about

it still requires a bunch of points to get to with or without the survival line and that isnt the definition of an elite profession anyway. Elite is any profession graduated over the base professions.
And i have said before when i dont have work to do at work (which is frequently) i go on the forums. You happen to be posting a lot so i respond to you often. i dont even know when you posted i didnt know you were on at this time i am just responding. Calm down Yog

Umm who told me to stop whining about grind?
I mastered Squad Leader before I made this post and survival line in scout ages before mastering squad leader. Just I could use that extra 14 exp in 0300 bounty hunter or something

What are you talking about?
It still would need combat and explore line, maybe you should stop pretending that your a squad leader
