i got it to work twice and that was it. What techniques shouldI use in attempting to use this skill.

How does it work? I only got it to work once but that was it. I need some techniques on how others got it to work and is it even worth using? Should I try and use it or just spend my time harvesting? HELP!!

sorry it posted twice

Ozz,

Do a search on "maskscent" and you'll find fifteen bazillion posts on strategies to use it.

For the most part, don't base your leveling strategy with maskscent as a primary feature. Just get out there and go hunting.

In my experience -

at exploration 2 it only worked against kreetles and even then not su[er well. Seemed like it was broken by those silly barking rabbits at a thousand meters - an exercise in frustration

at exploration 3 I noticed that it didn't break nearly as often and I was able to get xp off anything from a light blue con to a yellow regularly. those Red Red Red's still see me in a heartbeat though.

I just got exploration 4 last night, so I haven't had a chance to test it at that level, but if the trend continues I expect it to be that much more reliable and consistant.

The level of the creature you are attempting to fool seems to make a difference on whether you get xp for it or not.

Hi Ozzman,

In my experience -

expl 2 markscent is useless - kreetles see through it half the time, and nothing else is fooled by it at all.

expl 3 markscent is useless against Red cons - yellows are iffy - white and lower it's pretty dependable.

expl 4 - just got it, dunno yet - but if the trend continues I expect it to gain reliablilty and power.
