My goblin ranger has so far never been able to find tracks of PCs even when I've known for a fact that there are PCs nearby whose tracks should be quite easy to spot. And my tracking modifier should be pretty decent.
I will keep testing this but there seems to be something amiss.
You can't track PCs, as far as I know. This feature only works with NPCs.
I believe this was deliberately disabled ages ago.
It says in the ranger tracking FAQ that you should be able to track PCs.
EDIT: Howland responded at the exact same time as I did. Got it. Maybe somebody could update the FAQ?
You can still track PCs with the help of a DM.
Would be nice if rangers could track PCs that fall under one of their Favored Enemies.
