I just want to say that I think that it's ridiculous that a barbarian spitting snarling dancing all over the place and roaring about can toot on a warhorn and lure any mob into the room. but as a ranger, in tune with nature and able to vanish into nothing at will... I can't even call animals into the room let alone any creature in the game.
We hear a lot of talk about balance and fairness when it comes to the use of magic and the use of magic to accomplish things. We've had some of our abilities shared with every guild in the game. (arranging, companions, etc) but when content is released that from an RP standpoint really makes sense for our guild... we aren't even given a tip of the hat.
I'm done complaining... but I would be interested in a civil conversation with whatever GM decides who gets what abilities.

Especially since animal lures/calls were something mentioned both by Treveri and Jent as a natural for ranger development. I was also disappointed that we were excluded from this system when it seems to be so much in sync with the hunter aspect of this guild.
This was one of the several reasons I kept up with training vocals after having enough for the beseech, in case we ever got this ability.

How long does it take you to lock evasion or hiding/stalking? Now imagine you're weapons primary instead, and you need three different kinds of weapons, and the only way to learn well is to utterly eviscerate creatures.
Sometimes gryphon spawn can't keep up with me when each room is filled.

Basically how skinning was for rangers before arrange, except you get exp for every attack instead of just once.
I have no issue with Barbs getting war horns. Or Bards getting siren.
I just firmly believe that we should have gotten our long-discussed animal lure/call ability along with them.

Longer than I want it to. Just because you are weapons prime, don't make the mistake of thinking that hiding/stalking/perception/scouting lock instantly.
I can lock several weapons, long before I lock my hiding.
The fact is, everyone wants more critters for some reason or another. Barbs don't NEED it anymore than anyone else NEEDS it in some way.
We all have crosses to bare. Now get back in your own folder.
