Other Types of Scouts

As you advance into each of the next four provinces (Kourna, Vabbi, the Desolation, and the Realm of Torment), the "scouts" you encounter will have different names and themes. For instance, Wandering Priests give out bounties in Kourna, while Vabbian Scouts play the same role in Vabbi.

The higher ranks may seem daunting at first, but you'll also receive greater rewards of promotion points as you advance in the game. Each time you collect a bounty in Kourna, for instance, it's worth four promotion points instead of the one point you'd receive in Istan. Although the "scouts" you visit in Istan are all near resurrection shrines, that isn't true later in the game. When in doubt, check your Mission Map (opened by pressing the U key) to verify the location of the nearest scout. http://www.guildwars.com/gameplay/gwnfeatures/titletracks.php
