Nor did having it at 99%. Waylay always, always, ALWAYS had a 1-round lag on pk's. Period. Waylay occasionally had a 2-round lag on mobs. Whenever waylay had a 2-round lag, (this isn't scientific research fellas, just what I noticed), the mob had more than 1 name. Waylay gnoll for example gave me a 1 round lag. Waylay stalker gave 2 rounds. Stalkers are also "named" dark...ie "look dark" or "look stalker" both make you look at it. Gnolls (FoN gnolls that is) have 1 "name". Gnoll. Furthermore, I suspect (from your post and other people who've asked) that the requirement to get a fast (1-round) waylay might be different from the requirement to get fastcamo/fastcreep. Perhaps a higher amount of time in the forests. What are you waylaying?
By the time I got waylay, I'd had fastcamo/fastcreep for a long time, and had been forestbound almost 100% of the time (or so it seemed). Here are my experiences and suspicions:
