Same, it is inconvenient. It really messes with the questing speed for trash.

I haven’t tested it but as a work around in case its not a bug, you can always use a cancel macro

Sounds it. What shocks me is how many more bugs there are in retail over classic… I thought Classic was a buggy mess, then I played Shadow Legends and realized that retail is the real mess.

thanks for reminding me of that

They originally did this to stop an exploit with Shadow Dance and Stealth. If you use Shadow Dance then entered Stealth, you could attack a player without Stealth breaking until Shadow Dance ended.

But, I believe they fixed that. So, I am not sure why it’s still in the game.

I have also noticed this and its really annoying. Report it as a bug so we can get it fixed, I’ll do the same.

…Shadow Legends?

So you didn’t pick up on the joke; I forgive you.

Use this place of Stealth on your Shadow Dance bar.
Note: It requires a double tap.

#showtooltop Stealth
/cancelaura Shadow Dance
/cast Stealth

#showtooltip Stealth
/cancelaura Shadow Dance
/stopattack
/stopattack
/cast [nostealth] Stealth

You should also be jumping to your target per the abilities description, thats broken too.

That is only when using the ability out of stealth, shadowdance is technically not stealth so you don’t teleport.

Not what the tool tip states, I understand why though. My god would Sub become the new DH of pvp.

“While stealthed, you strike through the shadows and appear behind you target up to 25 yards away, dealing 25% additional damage.”

Thats exactly what the tooltip states.

Yes… read shadow dance.

Thats fair. It is written in an ambiguous way. I guess I always just interpreted it as the passive benefits like the damage from nightstalker.

No, the verbiage is that of a pvp god ability lol.

Not sure if you played when it was first put in but thats actually pretty accurate to how it worked in the past. Dance around and cheapshot a whole arena team even though they were in different corners of the arena.
