I suppose its a bug, because i went to Naboo and was able to get some exp by Mask Scent-ing mobs.


So this means Tatooine mobs are bugged or not flagged correctly.

Con system is really messed up right now, greens spot me w/ mask scent, so its impossible to get xp.

its not bugged, you just have to find tougher mobs to hide from



try diseased bocatts, scyks, mutant womp rats, etc etc.



they might be too tough for you to fight alone, but you can still get exp from mask scent.

Have they severly limited the types of mobs you can get exp from by using Mask Scent on them? I just recently got Exploration 4 after much hard work, and now I can only seem to get exp from one type of mob on tatooine, the sevorrts, but every other hostile type mob like dewbacks, mynots, rats, kreetles, all give me no exp. Is this a bug or intentional?


I think im gonna head to some other plannet and try it out, but right now I am fairly disappointed that I worked all this way for nothing really.

Find tougher creatures? Dewbacks can rip most people a new one when going toe to toe. Some of the creatures are bugged.


I travelled out quite a bit last night and found that mountain squill are giving 231 scout exp per successful mask scent VS them, but it takes time to be successful so its not really worth it. The sevorrts are now giving me exp with mask scent again, about 21 exp per, also diseased bocatts are giving like29 exp.


As far as how close I am getting to the creatures, i have walked up beside dewbacks and sat down beside them and never been spotted and yet got no exp.


On a side note, last night after ALOT of work I made creature handler.

How close are you getting to the creatures?

A devil gulnaw 'spots' me at 64 meters while a crazed durni is around 40. If you are not at this range, you will not get xp.

Do you get told when you earn Masking XP? Or is it like crafting's Usage XP and it just kinda magically shows up in your totals?
