Thread: Mask Scent success governed by Hunting, not Exploration?
That shouldn't have any effect. According to the skill tree, the only skills that improve maskscent are Novice Scout, Exploration I thru IV, and Master Scout. If you didn't give up any of those, your maskcent success shouldn't have changed.
If it did, sounds to me like something fishy is going on here.
I've been running low on skill points for a while now and recently sacrificed Hunting 1-4 (Creature Knowledge, Creature Harvesting) to make room. Over the course of the next few hours it occured to me that Mask Scent no longer worked. At all. Like, as bad as when I first got it. At the suggestion of a friend I re-trained Hunting 1-4, and Mask Scent has become usable again.
Is this just my superstitious nature, or has anyone else had similar experience?
