Hiding Skill ups?
Hiding Skill ups?
I macroed hiding all day. Started the day with 95.3 hiding and came back home 10 hours laster with 95.3 hiding. I'm not over the skill cap, and even if I was I have skills pointed down (like herding). I'm really not sure what happened. Can anyone enlighten me?

Reveal before trying to hide. Stick a "say ." right before you attempt to hide again.

It's odd because that same macro worked all the way up till 95 without revealing.Panthor the Hated wrote:Reveal before trying to hide. Stick a "say ." right before you attempt to hide again.

Re: Hiding Skill ups?
its easier to hide when you're already hidden thus slower gains
have you ever had hiding on a char ns?

Only things I knew about hiding difficulty was in a house you're friended (100% success), next to or in a house you're not friended to (50% success?), or around many people (urban legend?).

Re: Hiding Skill ups?
I macro'd Hiding to GM on my bard about 2 weeks ago without a hitch. Expected gains all the way to GM
I did this in several places, public housing, where there were rooms with 2 or 3 guards in a very confined area. There is some in just about every town, but in Moonglow there is one example just south of the Mage shop that has the recsu/recdu entrance to T2A.

I often quote myself; it adds credibility to my argument.

I GM'd hiding on Zorik Uther in the last few weeks.
I left him in the Britain Library running a simple "Hide, Wait 10.5s" macro.

Re: Hiding Skill ups?
I've gmed hiding 5 times on this shard, def faster with my suggested method.
You've got time Mikel, why don't you make some charts about it.

Re: Hiding Skill ups?
Be sure to be in a public place (not a house), and I believe being next to ppl actually helps.
I macroed it next to a town crier in a small city.

Re: Hiding Skill ups?
Back in the day I GMed it by ... if I remember. I would hide then cast (fishing) in a boat. Fishing took forever to gm but hiding went fast.
Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish on UOSA and he will stay up until his wife yells at him to get to bed.

The only things I can suggest for not getting gains:Gorgrim wrote:I macroed hiding all day. Started the day with 95.3 hiding and came back home 10 hours laster with 95.3 hiding.

hiding skill arrow not pointed up/at skill cap and no skill arrows pointed down (but you've already said this isn't the case)
OR
you're macroing in your house or a house you are a co-owner/friend of.
If neither of these are the case, then I'm stumped. I had no trouble macroing hiding, always got reliable, consisten gains on several different chars I've GM'd it on
