Scout Archive

I know its been a while since the change but I just noticed it and it ticked me off. When the camoflauge skill was changed to maskscent for scouts is what Im talking about. I only chose to look like a dog/monkey (donkey) because of the +15 to maskscent.

Since Iwas going to be a CH/BE i needed the extra maskscent ability to get in close and tame/ samplecreatures.

Man, this board is sensitive..hit the enter key by accident. I was wondering did the Devs mean to nerf us or did the overlook it?If they meant to do it to us, then we should get to change our race. Right now they are only good for rangers. Im sure im not the only one that picked Bothan for the maskscent ability. Just wish they could give us back the bonus to it.

Afix8r,

From my understand of my conversations with the Scout dev, the modifier for Bothans was to be a +5 to maskscent and a +15 to camo. I'll double check with him and confirm that this got done.

Thanks Delta.

Right now, my maskscent skill is +70. So I dont think its in yet unless it isnt showing up. But Im glad to hear we get a little something.

+70 is what you get with exp IV, the last +30 is in the master skill.

yeah..but before they changed the camo skill for scouts Bothans had an extra 15 points to maskscent. Which made our maskscent effective at explore 2 unlike everyone else that didnt have any luck til explore 3.

So if it wouldnt have been changed Bothans could have gotten to 115 maskscent. I just wish they would have changed it before release so I wouldnt regret what race I picked now.

I just checked my stats. Bothan Novice Ranger = 100 maskscent. I am not longer any better than any other race at this when I had an advantage before. I hope that there is something that will make us Bothnas happy again.

I think Bothans look more like Rat dogs. Maybe a touch of Cammel. THey are damned ugly whatever the case.

Want a milk bone? Bothan Scooby Snacks?

Careful, you'll affect my Bothan Self Esteem

got off topic there for a second. I thought I was back in game. But then again, in game I fully enjoy, and brag about killing bothans.

I thought camoflague was a bonus added to Maskscent. the exploration line has camo bonus' as you move up the line, which I thought was a /mask aid. But I noted that as a master scout, things don't aggro me as often. They'll attack thenon scoutnext to me, but almost never me.

If camo is a separate "skill" as it should be, then the +15 Ratdog... err Bothans get should help out alot.

Dev,

Mask scent's modifier is now "Mask Scent" and not "camo".

Camo is for Ranger's conceal kits.

I'll remind GreenMarine about this.
