Rangers now have the innate ability to TRACK creatures within hunting grounds. The syntax is TRACK {creature}, where {creature} is one that can normally be found in that area. Successfully tracking the creature will move the Ranger to a room where a live creature of that type is present and no other players are currently engaged with it. Tracking success is based on the Ranger's Intuition and Wisdom bonuses, their Survival and Perception skills, and the level difference between the Ranger and the target creature. Rangers gain a bonus to successful tracking if they currently have an Adventurer's Guild bounty for that creature. There is a one minute recovery period after tracking a creature, success or failure. Tracking results in some roundtime, which can be reduced by Survival training and having their animal companion present.

Note that Rangers can also track while hidden to attempt to sneak up on their target, or, if they're leading a group, can lead their group members to the creature.
