I just wanted to see if any other rogues out there are having the same issue with [Stealth] that I’m having?
Out in the open world I’m fine but the minute I enter a battleground and hit ‘stealth’ I’m pretty much immediately booted from stealth? So I re-enter stealth and without doing anything, I can have my hands in the air and I’ll leave stealth…?
I dont know what or which class is getting me out of stealth. Its annoying in Epic BGs when big groups of ppl fighting. Maybe they using the “stealth toy” or something? Whats the name of this toy? I want to see what it does in wowhead.
It doesn’t seem to be happening in arena luckily, but whenever I’m in a BG I simply can’t stay in Stealth for more than a few second.
I believe it’s when I’ve applied bleeds to a target and then left combat. I seem to vanish, sprint away but as I’m running my stealth drops off and they just engage me again.
I’ve also noticed that if I’m ever within 50 yards of a DK, I get 3/4 dots applied to me out of nowhere, which in turn pulls me straight out of stealth…
I keep seeing it’s just a “Retail” issue that’s been around for years. As someone who quit Retail when Classic launched and is coming back for The War Within, how is the newer game, worse than the older version of the game?..
its an aura bug. hidden auras are applied to you when players cast certain spells or gain certain procs, and for whatever reason some of these pull you out of stealth. its probably as simple as someone forgetting a toggle while implementing the skill.
but yeah the new one is with demo warlocks and i believe DKs might’ve gained another one. it was relatively fine in DF but a noticeable one was undead’s touch of the grave racial proc.
its more obvious the more players around - which is why spark quests in wpvp on reset are so awful, and being near any team fight in an epic bg. the chances of encountering the bugged aura is way higher.
i ended up RCing my rogue from undead to night elf to avoid that aura bug that pulls you out of stealth when their racial ‘touch of the grave’ is applied
i wouldnt be surprised at all if they just forgot to go through and make sure these abilities don’t break stealth because its not really an issue in pve, ever, and no one pvps so they just dont even consider it. but yeah definitely annoying and its part of the reason i got sick of my rogue in bgs and wpvp. you’ll be about to open or planning your opener and then suddenly you’re out of stealth because a warlock killed someone and soul harvest procced or whatever
