Is it intended that rogues get knocked out of stealth 2 sec after stealthing in Layer 12 of Torghast? Constantly, literally each time I stealth I get knocked out of stealth 2 sec later and have to restealth again, and I get knocked out of stealth again. It’s like having a bleed or dot. I had to restealth hundreds of times across both runs, every 2 secs out of combat. If it’s intended congrats to Blizz for what would possibly be the single most unfun part of Torghast yet for rogues, who find it hard enough to solo it.
Even in a group it’s annoying, you either have to make your tank wait till you are stealthed and then he has a 2 sec window to pull before u get knocked out of stealth, or just attack out of stealth and lose a lot of buffs (Nightstalker, Master Assassin, Subterfuge all benefit from stealth. Not to mention a lot of anima powers).
Is this a Torment that is causing it? I checked the 3 Torments I had and none of them apply a dot or a bleed:
- Avenger — Enemies grant nearby allies increased Haste on death
- Unstable Phantasma — Phantasma will periodically coalesce and attempt to escape with your Phantasma
- Supernatural Power — Unnatural Power is significantly stronger
I checked my debuffs there’s nothing that would cause a dot that would cause me to get out of stealth. No, it’s not the Dreadbugs debuff that causes a permanent dot, I didn’t pick that power. I have a feeling it’s something to do with the Soul Remnant’s Curse which is a Blessing, is this what is causing it?
Is this a bug or intended?
Yes, Blizzard is intentionally breaking your stealth. And by the lack of any other complaints about it, Blizzard isn’t breaking stealth, just YOUR stealth. Congratulations! Blizzard hates you!

it’s obviously a bug. Come on, man, you really think that’s intentional? Stealth always has bugs that mess it up, ever since Vanilla. Just today they had to hotfix one of the Shards to not break stealth; it doesn’t look like you have that one, so it must be something else.
I hope it’s a bug, but it’s happened on both Torghast wings at L12 and because it was breaking 2 sec after stealthing, every single time you stealthed, it suspiciously feels like it’s an intended change, and that one of the Torments that is causing it, maybe it was an undocumented change just to make things more “challenging” (i.e. harder/annoying). It was like I had a forever bleed. And it definitely wasn’t the Dreadbugs debuff that puts a permanent dot on you. It’s a shame I can’t look at my activity log to see what is causing it.
I will run a L12 on my druid to see if it happens in stealth there too.
If you click the stealth icon, this will happen.
You could also be using a move that takes you out.
I would suggest reading a class guide so you know which moves do this and do not.
I’m having this same issue on layer 11

Thanks for your suggestion. I’ve played my rogue since 2007, so not as long as others I’m sure, but I think I know all the abilities that can take a rogue out of stealth and I’m not using any of them (good thought though). In fact I’m not using any abilities - I press my stealth hotkey once, not twice (not a clicker), stand still and 2 seconds later I am taken out of stealth without doing anything. As I mentioned earlier, it’s like there is a permanent dot or bleed on me that takes me out of stealth as it doesn’t happen randomly - it happens every time I initiate stealth. I can’t see any dots or bleeds on my debuffs however, unless it’s that Soul Remnant’s Curse blessing that reduces stamina each time you free a soul.
Since nobody else other then @Eightskin is complaining about it, maybe it has something to do with the interactions of my specific blessings and torments. I’ve done both my Layer 12 this week with great difficulty since a rogue unable to remain in stealth loses access to a large portion of its toolkit. I guess I will wait and see what happens next week if my blessings and torments change.
