Not allowing you to pickup your own scents

Postby jordancoles » Thu Apr 12, 2012 2:26 am

Just as the title says. You should be able to see if scents are your own. Or simply remove the ability to carry your own scents through tracking.
I've tracked myself a few times now :P

But it's fun tracking someone all the way to the southern end of the map.

Let us reflect upon the good he was able to do during his short time in the hearthlands.
Let us remind ourselves of his bravery and willingness to fight for the safety of his friends!
Let us hope he can surpass his previous achievements in his future lives.

If you allow distinction of scents then you do open a whole new area of tracking. Just imagine all those people who cover serious scents with lesser ones to distract people. :) I think you are right but you do open a new range of actions.

If you take a scent in your hand and right click it on another scent it will say if they were left by the same person or not. It should also tell you that the scent was left by you or not.

To be honest, scents should be removed altogether.

yeah, cause scents are too OP. Us criminals should be able to live our lives without interference from goody two shoes.
