I'm not sure if it is my bad luck balancing out or not, but as of the patch for the morning of the 12th, I have noticed that the camo/maskscent seems to be lasting longer than it did since it was implemented. There are also no messages about gaining exp for a successfull check.

Currently on Dathomar, and I have been running around all day. After runningby over 100 red cons, the maskscent/camo only broke about 12 times. Of those 12 less than half became aggro, and none ofthe aggros warped to me. The average range for the detection was about 60 meters. Since we are not getting exp messages anymore, it is difficult to determine who or what broke the camo. Loosing exp in exchange for more reliablilty is a good exchange in my opinion.

All of the creatures that broke the camo were of a minimum difficulty level 18 and ferocity level of 5. The most common creature to break it were Purbola Stalkers. It is also better against NPC's. I approached a group of 5 Night Sister Slaves without being attacked. The camo broke when I initially approached, but there was no aggro. I reapplied it and approached to within 10 meters of them. I then took the camo down approached several others. They all went aggro almost immidiately. Used burst run to get away, reapplied camo and went back. No aggro. The Night Sister Slaves did not have a difficulty level but the average ham was 7500.

This was the first time that I have been on Dathomar, so there is nothingfor me to comparethe failure rateto. I'll have to checkhow often thecamo fails on Yavin and Corella before I'm willing to say that it has been fixed.

Has anyone else been getting good results since this mornings patch, or am I just having a good day. Also if it is fixed did they change the requirements or add domesticated meat to Lok. That would be the best test to see if it has been fixed.

Hmmm. I was on Endor last night and pulled 3 mobs from beyond 64 meters. One rock crusher and something else and finally a Borgle Life Sucker. That Endored my expedition for the day.
