still attacking[edit]

have any1 tried to attack while in this during the demo? me and my budd have a discussion about this and i'm saying that all stealth disappears when attacking, and some when you move. it would be insane if u could be invisible during combat? Zora Diem 08:51, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

don't you just love the stealth page? : Stealth is an effect which allows the user to be invisible to enemy players and avoid being spotted by enemy NPCs. To friendly characters a character with stealth on is visible as a transparent outline. In PvE, a foe will stop attacking a target if that target uses stealth.

Stealth is broken when the user attacks, but some stealth is also broken if the user moves. Hitting a stealthed character will not break the stealth but will cause the character to "flash" revealing them for a very brief amount of time.

If you were able to keep hitting that character you would effectively be able to see them. Stealing does not break stealth. Stealth can be used in combat. It does not last indefinitely. Enjoy! --you like that don't you..The Holy Dragons 09:01, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Dunno, wording is vague but my guess is this skill allows you to keep attacking and remain in stealth for the next 8 seconds. Still, like Dragons said, if you keep damaging the opponent, he'll flash constantly and you will effectively be able to see him/her. Locust swarm comes to mind as a nice counter to this. To be truly effective you'd have to use it a little ways away (or use another stealth skill) to close the distance and then start attacking. That leaves you with maybe 4 seconds of invisible damage time. Seems like it might be open to abuse, but we'll just have to wait and see. 199.245.34.11 09:25, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

now... what i can't really understand "Stealth can be used in combat. It does not last indefinitely." and "Stealth is broken when the user attacks" ?Zora Diem 09:41, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Stealth can be used in combat but it won't last forever (you can't have perma stealth mode, that's what the first one means) and you'll be visible once you attack, that's what the second one means! enjoy ^^ and PM me anytime if you need moar infoz :P --you like that don't you..The Holy Dragons 09:52, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
