On another note: I never did get Hide to work...
Only tanners need to get hide to work. And glass cleaners maybe.
you need beaten like a red-headed step child...
I'll clarify: I never got it to work for sata, but I did use it for other stuff.
Hide only works on mobs that track by sight.
So 5 goblins or yagudo chasing you or standing around, you steal a platinum beast coin then pop hide. But if one of them has a bat pet or is a summoner with an avatar out. Those track by scent and hide does nothing
Quadav track by sound and orcs by scent, so hide doesn't work on them either
