Natural Prowling? Negative Prowling? I don't know, but I guess it is something like that. Welcome to the forum by the way :)

I think it's noise penalty or something along those lines. Anyway, a negative number is bad for prowling.

Yes, it refers to the noise factor involved in wearing a piece of armor. ANd by the way, Kaiznex, welcome to the boards. :)

As was stated, it's noise. Bulkier armor (EX: plate) will have a huge negative, making it so that aggressive monsters will notice you from further away and the effects of prowle are lowered.

Welcome to the boards. They aint quite dead yet.
I cannot tell what you and other men think of this life, but for my single self, I had as lief not be as live to be in awe of such a thing as I myself.
