Due to the new, helpless effect. Does that mean scouts cannot snare or skirmish NPCs anymore, for xp gain.?

If they have no way of reaching you, you can't gain XP off them. If they're chasing you and you're running away while skirmishing, you'll still gain exp that way.

I distinctively remember someone asked this question in Sklz's thread. Dulrik responded that snare + shooting is fine. He said that he hasn't witnessed anyone to abuse this in a twink effect yet. Then he said people come up with new tricks all the time.

Here it is:

Does this include situations where skills or spells make the target helpless? For example, a scout snaring a NPC and shooting it down.

Not currently. Using snare is unpredictable and setting it up is fairly time consuming. As far as I know, killing snared victims for XP has never been a good method for power-levelling. I could easily be wrong though. Seems like people come up with new tricks all the time.

In short: snare + skirmish gives experience.

Good, I would hate to have to grind skirmish w/o getting something else out of it.
