Ok...ill bite...wait...did you mask scent the post?

We all I can say is I forgot to re-read the Ranger and Scout posts.

For a week now I have been saying Masksent is not working, bugged. Well, I was wrong. Only scouts get masksent now, and Rangers get Conceal and lose Masksent.

That is one of the mistakes I made posting. Sorry about that.

Anyway, the main reason for this post it to get you up to date on some of the questions you all have been asking.

Please read Holocrons post titled: Ranger Correspondent Feedback on the Ranger Board. it’s the second post from top.

It’s well worth your time, even if your not Scout or Ranger.

It is not that we lose the skill of maskscent...we cant have it taken away. I think what the devs are trying to say is that MaskScent is a Scout skill....and that a Ranger has a higer end skill (in this case Conceal). As a Ranger we wont lose that Maskscent..we just have another skill (conceal) to use as well.

i have read that post many times and it never once says that we loose the mask scent skill, it just says that it will be moved to the scouting tree and we will be getting the /conceal skill (which is stronger), we will still have the /maskscent ability (sense we ARE still master scouts heh), they are simply giving us a better alternative. Currently maskscent actually does work, just not like its suppose to,i have found that things will "stalk" me but wont attack unless they actually get on top of me.

Look at it this way....as you train for Combat medic you need to get Ranged weapon support. In Ranged weapon support you get Warning shot. A good thing to use.

But when you get to Combat medic you get all sorts of new commands...some that deal with Poison that can do more damage. Just because you get a better skill with Combat medic you still have the warning shot. It was needed to get Combat Medic and you still have it there to use.

We will have Maskscent to use still...but if we want much better success and want to sneak past NPC's we use Conceal and the new Camo kits.

They meant that the Maskscent skill mods given in the Ranger Wayfaring tree were removed and camo skill increases were added. You can't actually remove the skill without removing scouting.
