No/yes....like always, it depends :biggrin:


The undeads in FFXI can smell blood. So if you are heavy wounded they will come out of all holes and hunt you down (agro over a very long distance even if they are "not worthwhile").
Deodorize can prevent this and i cast it always when we hunt in undead areas. Like the one for Genkai 1. Maybe there are also some other beasts which agros in smell, i dunno. But when you hunt in undead regions its very very worthfull. Skip it to the day you need it.

Actually bones/undead are sound only. Sneak is needed.

undead are sneak only until you have yellow hp. then deodorize is required.

Ah, so that's why that wight went through half a map just to beat me up while I was resting? :sweat:

Good thing our white mage was quick on the draw and gave it the cure of its life (um... orunlife?).
