Tracking
Description
Tracking is a skill that allows the character to know if invisible or hidden characters, monsters, or other NPCs are around. The things detected do not become visible, but can be located and followed around (by an arrow constantly pointing in the target's direction).
Having higher Tracking skill allows characters to track characters with higher Hiding or Stealth skills, allows objects in a broader ranger to be detected, and allows objects to be detected more reliably.
It is currently most useful in PvP combat. Even with very little skill it is possible to reliably track most other visible characters, making it far more difficult for them to flee. It's also useful at Sea when trying to find other Ships, using the Scan The Horizons command on a boat with 100 tracking will increase the maps overall range by 50 tiles.
Usage
- Use the Tracking skill

It does not matter if you select a target to track or not you will still gain as long as the tracking window opened.
