Re: Why can't you just track in a couple of rooms and see which tracks are fresher?

If you mean currently...

Lets say I head from high tower through the shadow grove all the way to the battlefields and back by way of the mountains south of galadon cutting through the weald in order to maximize the amount of time im in the wilds.

Assuming I do this fairly quickly and use the exact same path going in both directions then quaff to my hometown at the end of the circuit, a tracking ranger would have no means to know using track as it is currently is to know how long its been since I have been there, which direction I went in last, etc. they'd be on a closed loop trying to track me.

This is how I believe it works from an admittadly bad memory.

What track is good at is knowing someone has been here. That with a little bit of luck can help you find people. But to me thats just not what tracking is all about. Tracking is information gathering. And the way the skill works doesnt actually provide much information.

Problem with the warning about the area

One more...

Kidding me? Track is OP. Seriously. NT

Maybe as a very expensive edge it could do some of the things you listed.

Batman December 22, 2011 05:20AM

An edge would be appropriate I think (n/t)

Moligant December 22, 2011 05:28AM

I don't think the order shows how fresh they are, but I think if the track fails to pick them up on spam, they're older. The skill already rocks, I see no need for bonuses. NT

Batman December 22, 2011 05:03AM

Track is actually pretty awesome in my opinion. (n/t)

RobDarken December 21, 2011 01:03PM

Seconded

daurwyn(VIP) December 21, 2011 01:48PM

Track is far from useless

Matrik December 21, 2011 11:34AM

Hunters get bonuses to examining blood. Would be nice to see a bonus to track (n/t)
