Camouflage blends the caster into the surroundings, placing them into hiding and adding +30 to attack strength (AS) on the next melee attack or bolt spell, or +18 Spiritual casting strength (CS) to the next warding spell. It also provides a bonus to remaining unseen while hidden, and a level-based bonus to UNHIDing unseen. If the ranger is discovered from hiding, or if the ranger moves or sneaks, the +30 AS bonus no longer applies. Archers may use this spell for a bonus to remain hidden while sniping.

Every 60 ranks of Stalking and Hiding will reduce the cast time of Camouflage down to a minimum of 1 second. In addition, the attack strength bonus can be maintained while sneaking depending on your stalking and hiding skill. Every sneak between rooms you will preserve (S&H ranks/ 2)%, capped at 50% of the remaining AS bonus.[1]

TRACK works with Camouflage in the following way: You lose the Camouflage AS/CS Boost while tracking, just like you do when moving or sneaking normally, but you do not get automatically revealed from hiding like normal. When tracking successfully, you stay hidden unless a creature discovers you.

Camouflage can be used indoors if the ranger first casts the spell Nature's Touch (625).
