Are there any threads discussing the benefits of using maskscent vs. cammo? I looked around and did not really find any. Are NPC's the only benefit? is one easier to break than the other? Does one last longer? With the increased spawns I find my cammo breaking allot more often.

I hunted on Endor all night the other night had only had my maskscent break a couple times. Last night on Yavin, my cammo broke so much I went through 16 /conceals on myself. I switched back to using /maskscent and it very rarely broke.

If i am rehasing an old topic I apologize in advance.

Yeah.... camo is driving me nuts as it's so inconsistent.

I think it's broken and am patiently awaiting the "Ranger re-vamp"..... ROFL, I'm sure I will still be playing SWG until then

(I still use camo, cuz I think it's fun, though).

Ps, I also noticed during the weekend, that camo won't break as much if you roam around by foot... I tested it for fun...Tuskens didn't attack when I walked around them.. I summoned my Vehicle, mountedand.... BAM, got attacked. That's fair... hope it wasn't just a fluke.

In addition to the NPC mask ability, conceal kits can be applied to other players. (scent buff)

Works great for group hunts. Except on Yavin =)

I'm going to test that "camo on foot" theory, as opposed to on a bike. Will report back here in a day or two.
I've pretty much switched to mask scent lately, unless I have a group with me.

I was on foot when this was occurring. Since I generally hunt unbuffed, being on a bike on the high level planets is suicide. If a mob spawns on you they can easily incap you on a bike.

Similarish experiences today on Endor and Dath. On Endor camo broke so often that I changed to maskscent and it did not seem to break practically at all. Many times it ran it's course and I had to reapply after the timer had ran out. On Dathomir however I drove to Aurilia and back with the same application of camo and it lasted the whole timer too (33min, I checked) so it did not break once.

My maskscent skill is 100 and camo 123.

I wonder...
