If you played a tracking class back In 99-00 you would remember being able to track corpses. I will look into this further.

You can also track corpses of group members. You must have been in the zone when your friend died, and must now be grouped with them. If you stay in the zone, you will be able to track their corpse. If you leave the zone or camp, you will not be able to track their corpse. Also, you will not be able to track their corpse if the person reenters the zone.

You can track your own corpse if you are bound in the same zone where you died, and do not leave the zone.

This is from the ZAM tracking page, the post in quotation is from March 21, 2003 even later than the link above. I know during this era all tracking classes had the ability to do this.

only rangers get the filter .. therefor bards and druids cant set filter to distance ( and yes it has to be set for distance if your a ranger )

skill does increase your range. at skill 65 you can barely track outside of visual range but at skill 200 i can stand in the middle of most zones and track the enitre Zone ( a few zones are jkust to damn big ) about 6-7 k in either direction using the /loc points ( to frineds helped me test it in West Karana )

you will always be able to track group members no matter how far away . You can also track group members corpse as long as you in the zone when they die and they dont come back into zone, very useful.

any other questions?
