Thread: Camo Kits
I had a camo kit in inventory and was attempting to conceal people only for the icon to flash and not a lot happen.
Was it stealth nerfed or just broken in this instance?
Some extra notes; after playing around I gave my camo kit to another player and tried /conceal again on someone else and didn't get the "you need a camo kit" error message which made me slightly alarmed, I only get this message now if I try to conceal myself without a camo kit, yes in otherwords exactly as if i'd used it from my inventory :/
Old idea. Very. As in well over 2 years. And it's ghillie.
Why yes, I first proposed it way back then.

Not other players, no. It works like a low level /mask against enemy NPCS though, but you have to move slowly.
Thats strange, cammoed I run through Imp controlled citys while overt and the stormies dont seem to notice me. might be a glitch but who knows.

While doing some faction missions, well just yesterday. I can while camo'd, walk up to an imp. and lump him up while his buddies standing 2-3 meters away do not see me at all. I know it is the camo because I was standing behind said imp., who just happened to be the last one for the group for the mission when my camo wore out, and he saw me and attacked. I have allso noticed that the higher lvl stormies, especally the squad leaders seem to break my camo and attack when I am attacking their mates.
I not sure what the formula for Camo Ability versus CL of the NPC is, butas an Imperial, camo works 99% - 100% of the time on the CL50 Rebel NPC's in Coronet. Movement speed (walking, running, riding a BARC) does not seem to matter.
CL matters. keep an eye on it Boost your cammo skill with some BE clothes and other things. You'll go even farther.
I remember the day when our cammo worked like the rifle mans cover ability. But they took it away gave it to them. I could take down a whole lair, without once getting discovered(just like a ranger should be able to), but not since cu. nerfed and nothing in return.
