Hiding Question

I've got a character that's trying to train hiding. I've been doing nothing but hiding for about 12 hours of macroing straight and I'm stuck at 96.1. I've logged out/in. This was across a server restart. I'm outside of guarded areas (but not in a dungeon).

Any help?

Thanks,

-Ptaz

-update: I killed myself and now it's going up normally.

The other people in the vicinity make a difference in the difficulty of hiding, you can't GM it all alone I don't believe

at gm it makes no difference, but at lower skill levels other mobiles in the area can contribute to failure

You really shouldn't walk around naked, or hide in that matter. It can raise eyebrows.
