Am I right in thinking that the ranger's Conceal skill is broken ?

I am Master Ranger and have tried it on Corellia and Dantooine. I can apply it to myself, but I am instantly detected by critters and immediately get the message "A creature has detected you despite your attempts at camouflage". This happens instantly and with critters of all levels, even the lowest.

Can anyone confirm this skill is broken?
Thank you

It is not broken, per se. However, you can instantly reapply them when they do break.

Yes, but my point is that they break instantly. Then you can instantly re-apply. And then they re-break instantly. And then you instantly re-apply. And then they instantly break ...

Systematically, with no exceptions, I re-apply conceal 5 times in the space of 15 seconds. Basically, for me it NEVER sticks. So it seems to me that to all intents and purposes, /conceal is broken. Unless someone can tell me that for them it works fine and lasts for several minutes - in which case I'm just being very unlucky, or else doing something wrong.

When I bothered to use them, they lasted pretty good, save when I was trying to creep up on Krayts.

Camouflage tapes work.
