About the same as mask scent... Breaks when you least want it to and other times never seems to break.






Thanks, that's helpful. I forgot to mention that both my toons are 4000 Scout. I imagine that Mask Scent is far more effective as a Master Ranger, or with some SEA's or FS skills.

Ah, that answers the question I was about to post--as to how these kits supplement Mask Scent. If they work against different kinds of mobs, then maybe it would indeed be worth carrying around all the kits, at least for my CL 7 artisan alt when he's out moving harvesters! How would you guys compare the effectiveness of these kits with Mask Scent, versus their respective targets? Mask Scent breaks annoyingly often on Dathomir--so often that I usually don't even bother to use it if I am driving cross-country (like to the Village).




Cammo kits are essentially better mask scent (if they work right...)
Cammo will also occasonaly help against NPC argo, but apprently depending on which CSR you talk to, they aren't supposed to.

Also, you can't /conceal and /cover at the same time .... most of the time.....

It's really hard to tell what's going to work or not, as these are currently the most bugged commands in the game....

Ah, so camo kits do work against creatures then? Do they stack in some way with Mask Scent, or are they entirely independent of each other? In other words, if you're running both a camo kit and mask scent simultaneously, does only the one with the stronger effect make any difference?
