Thread: No /maskscent skill check if you maxed your scouting exp

Before I maxed out scout exp, I would be able to know when a /maskscent skill check happened by the scout exp I received. It was very useful many ways. Now that I do not receive anymore scout exp, I cannot tell when this skill check happens.

I'm wondering if there's any chance we could request that a message be put in? If not, I'll just get Novice Creature Handler every so often to reduce my scout exp.

Actually once I maxxed out my scouting experience I was happy to not get that message anymore. Generally I don't care when the check is MADE, I care when the check FAILS. And if it fails,I get a message telling me so. Much cleaner in my opinion.

Yes, but it's useful (IMHO) to know when a check has been made and passed. If I run up on 5 red triangles and only get 4 lines of scout spam, I know that I'm missing one. I'd rather know that before the fight so I can make sure I get the 5th guy, instead of dropping to prone and having the 5th guy wander in in the middle of the fight and mabye blow my mask scent.

If you don't get the scout spam, you just gotta kinda guess and hope that you've gotten 'em all.
