There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required.

On the Trail
Be vewwy, vewwy quiet. You're hunting wabbits. And by "wabbit" I mean "<monstername>."
Effect
Multiplies the number of Trailed monsters by 4. Normal Adventure Queue rejection does not occur on the Olfacted monster.
Monster Chances
The N column is the number of evenly distributed monsters in the Zone. For example, N=5 can refer to The Black Forest or Lair of the Ninja Snowmen. The Trailed Rate refers to the chance that a combat encounter will be the trailed monster, while On the Trail remains in effect. Overall Rate includes all combat turns with and without On the Trail.
These values were produced by Monte Carlo simulation (10 million turns) assuming a full 39 turns of On the Trail per sniff (i.e. a 100% combat rate). If there are noncombats in the zone as well, then those will make each sniff slightly less effective (not calculated).

Obtained From
- odor extractor (40 Adventures)
- Transcendent Olfaction (40 Adventures)
Notes
- In the effect description, <monstername> is the name of the monster being tracked.
- Does not have any effect on Combat Frequency.
- You can not get rid of the trailed monster using a divine champagne popper, Creepy Grin or Harold's bell, since these are assumed to set the rejection rate of the monster to 100%, but that rejection rate is never checked when the monster is being trailed.
- This effect works across different areas. If you olfact a drunken half-orc hobo from the choice adventure in The Haunted Pantry, and then go to the Sleazy Back Alley, the drunken half-orc hobo will show up as expected with Olfaction's effect manipulating how things occur.
- If this effect is received from the ittah bittah hookah or from a Knob Göblin lòve potion, you will be on the trail of the last thing you sniffed. (If you haven't sniffed anything yet, the effect says "wabbits" for "<monstername>".)
References
- The effect's description is based on some famous lines spoken by the character Elmer Fudd.
