"Every step tells a story, every trail leads somewhere"
Tracking allows you to detect and locate creatures within a certain range, displaying their positions on a special tracking window. This skill is invaluable for hunters, scouts, and PvPers who need to know what's around them. At higher levels, tracking can detect hidden players and show detailed information about nearby threats.

|---|---|---|
| 0-25 | 5-10 | Immediate area only |

| 75-100 (GM) | 30-50 | Very large area |
Tracking can detect hidden players, but requires high skill:
Regularly scan all creature types - animals, monsters, and humanoids. Each provides different tactical information about the area's safety and opportunities.
Track the same target multiple times to determine movement patterns. This helps predict where enemies are heading and plan intercepts or avoidance.
Use tracking to detect hidden thieves and scouts. If humanoids appear and disappear from tracking, they're likely using hiding/stealth nearby.
