I have a ranger friend that gives me camo kits when she helps me look for pets to tame. Even though I am level 80 and most the things we have looked for lately are below 60 I will lose camo from time to time. Seems random to me when it happens. Sorry I know this does not help much.

I got BE clothes i got food, i have tried camo and i have tried camo from rangers, nothing work. The lowered agression fron critters 10 lvls below you helsp the lvl80 CH but for me would that be lvl44 critters and i can say this lvl44 critters nad belwo is easy to go and tame. Thx for the advice but i had all ready tried it before and after CU.
It seems as the thing that keeps us from being overpower is really crippling to the weaker of us, this system only rewards the lvl80 warrior. I dont say i shall be able to fight as good as oen of them because i cant because i ahve no real combat proffession, but when it comesto tame animals and handle them for trainning and stuff would i say i shall be just as good as a lvl80 because i am a master and no other proffession buffs up CH to that. The hostile yellow dot babies doesnt make this easier either, the babies of a bull rancor kills me in no time even if i get past parents before i even try to tame it.
Add BH to doc doesnt make it a better Doc, why should BH added to CH give a better CH.
Fein out
well my two cents even though Im lvl 80 (mch/mrifles) I do notice a difference when wearing my mask scent/camo clothing when hunting for babies especially on the more hostile planets like yavin 4 klikniks spot me 90% of the time (lvl 72-79) I usually use when hunting mask scent +15 camo + 15 spec ops duster, camo kits and jawa beer and on rare occasions the looted aroma buff that adds to mask scent even with all these I do get spotted on occasion
one of the things you can try with all the above items is if you spot a baby try to wait it out and see if it strays away from parents/adults when it does walk up to it slowly at an angle so your not in direct eyesite I find this helps ( learned from old pre cu days when sampleing from a mutant rancor ) dont speeder up just walk faster movement tends to draw attention faster. some of the other food you can use while taming is the pikatta pie or air cake it adds to dodge from attacks and also any food that will add to your ranged/melee defences so babies wont hit as often if you do keep your speeder out most babies/adults will only chase you for 100m then drop off I usually reapply the camo kit when running from baby and go right back as soon as it drops pursuit
I hope some of this helps
I sneak on foot and wait as you describe, but it dont help when the baby is just as agressive as the adults and allmost as deadly.

My other choice on my main was to retain the template I have always had since live - the CH/TK. It makes me cl80 for combat, again ignoring all good advice as to how weak I was in combat and "should go this - or that"
You are playing the way you want to play - always please yourself first. You just need to adapt your play style to the new "hate" bags that is all mobs are now. Creature level is everything - but the modded clothes can give you work rounds.
The clothes help for critters lvl45-50 maybe but a lvl55 voritor hunter notice me the same minute i get within 40 meters from them. Somethign strange happend when my sl/pistoleer grouped with a BE lvl17, she coudl easy sneak up and take samples from lvl65-70 critters. Normaly didnt the critters care if you had one higher in group , they agroo agaisnt the lower lvl any way but this went smooth with all critters exept klikniks on yavin, i will try if the same goes for CH later. But a stronger mask scent woudl help CHs and BEs in work and not be totaly unbalancing if mask scent was broken the moment you attack and taming and sampling didnt count as attacks.

Here are some things to help.
1. Tame from speeders yeah you can tame from speeders useing radial con and tame from that. Quicker getaway.usually before you take a hit.
2. Maskscent only against viscious creatures otherwise and you have it up if it breaks it actually gives you aggro.
3. Simply group with a level 80 player.
Your right maskscent and camo are really kind of jokes now. They work only at times when you really dont need them. Sneaking past something that wont aggro anyway is not a real accomplishment and when you see something you dont want to fight odds bigger then you. You cant slip by.
that has a good side anda bad side. good, in that if you do get aggro, the mobs hit you for less than they would, because you are considered CL80 instead of CL54 so your defenses are better against mobs your level or higher. but, when you're considered CL80 and you're not really CL80, mobs con as grey even when they're not (an aggro CL60 will attack you if you don't have mask scent up, for example) so you have to pay more attention to your surroundings, using tab instead of trusting the radar con colors.

So, an unfortunate side effect, so to speak, of the CL system is that a CL54 CH (or any CL54 combat profession) is just not going to be as effective as CL80. Just the way it is.
