Ranger Archive

An update to the +25 modifier and racial modifiers question I had:

I recently reached master ranger (yay!). As a Bothan, my natural camouflage score is +115. With my current set of clothes (+39; overkill I know now), I have it listed as +115/+154.

When I experiment on camo kits, I have 14 experimentation points, which implies a camouflage of +140. This shows two things.

1) +25 is the cap for all item modifiers. (Just for my own peace of mind.)
2) Racial modifiers are not a part of this cap. They will stack.

So whether you are a Bothan thinking about camo clothes or a Twi'leki considering a dancing outfit, getting the full +25 modifier on your clothes will still be of benefit to you.

"When I experiment on camo kits, I have 14 experimentation points, which implies a camouflage of +140."

Excellent, that is good to finally know.

Yes, that is correct. This isn't really about making camo kits, just a way to see what my actual skill modifier is. For every +10 camouflage, we get 1 experimentation point when making these kits. So by using this I know the game has my skill set at +140.

There has been a lot of confusion about how much of a boost you can get from modifiers in the past. The skill box lists the sum of all modifiers, yet the devs state it is capped at +25 for everything. Only nothing was said about how racial modifiers factored into this.

I simply wanted confirmation that these racial modifiers were or were not factored into the cap. Now we know -- they are not.

I'll need to test it out but i can remask scent with Master ranger and my +29 clothes in 8 seconds. This helps tremendously. Often i can remask before i'm attacked.
