Outdoor skill enemy enounters
JacksSmirkingRevenge:
Does having a higher OD skill lessen the amount of encounter total? Or does it allow the option to avoid the encounter more often?
If you think about it from an RolePlay perspective. If you were a hunter you would have a very high OD skill. So with the OD ability would come tracking so you could find animals (encounters) more often than someone without the skill.
I think the OD skill should allow more encounters but with a higher OD skill the more of a chance to select the option to avoid.
solid snake:
i dont understand OD skill or how encountering players works. when i played in real time i never encounter other players. with high OD% its the same. now playing in both modes with under 40% OD i end up in other players' encounters all the time.
Slaver Snipe:
Well with high OD you get out of the square quicker, when you play only RT you cannot encounter TB, whereas if you play both modes you can encounter either.
ronon dex:
Your Outdoorsman skill modifies the chance you have to notice an encounter. Regardless of the skill's %, your chance cannot be higher than 95%.
When you notice an encounter, you will receive xp based on your Outdoorsman skill, the type of terrain you are on, and the difficulty of the encounter.
Then the group leader will be given an option to Enter or avoid an encounter.
Chance that you will notice an encounter is based on:
Terrain type (easy/hard).
Highest Outdoorsman skill in group. (The person/critter will warn the group leader.)
Difficulty of the encounter.

When you have single mode you can only encounter players from that mode and both mode in a "forced" encounter
If you have both you get to see players from RT, TB and BOTH
