It seems to be a visual bug that doesn’t effect my ability to go in or out of stealth, but nonetheless I’m stuck in a crouched stealth animation permanently.
EDIT: From my testing this bug seems to be tied to K’Aresh and isn’t happening in other zones. My macros with [nostealth] conditions do not work on K’aresh, and I also had my sister on her DK make a /cast [nostealth] Death’s Advance macro and it didn’t work in K’aresh either. Our characters seem to be permanently flagged as stealthed while in this zone.
EDIT 2: I’m going to take a wild guess and say this bug is tied to Phase Diving somehow.

Yeah i was looking for this, it is so annoying, re login fix it until you go in combat and then stuck again in stealth animation, mounting up also makes the mount run as if stealthed…
My MM hunter is as well and the only thing fixing it is logging out and back in
Even after the stealth buff disappears, the character remains in a stealthed state internally. All stealth classes have this same bug.
This bug affects status macros such as [stealth] and [nostealth]…

I have this too. Worth noting that to my friend, my animations looked normal. So it’s just on client-side apparently (similar to the Guild Tabard transmog appearance bug)
It did actually break a macro I have for stealth, but the macro was missing from my macro tab as of 11.2 so I thought it was unrelated.
EDIT: The macro wasn’t missing, I just forgot the Stealth icon changes while I’m stealthed and I couldn’t find it lol. But the macro is broken on K’aresh.

Weird, it doesn’t seem to affect my !stealth macros. It still treats me as being out of stealth (and puts me into actual stealth) when I use them.

Here I found the macro I use that’s broken in 11.2
#showtooltip Stealth
/cancelaura [nocombat] Shadow Dance
/cast [nostealth] Stealth
The purpose of the macro is to let me restealth when Shadow Dance is up, and to prevent me from unstealthing on accident.
The first part is broken in that it requires two presses now, one to cancel Shadow Dance, another to Stealth, and then the second part [nostealth] does not let me stealth at all—presumably our characters are flagged as being stealthed while in Karesh/
I’ve been encountering this issue on my Feral Druid- it also causes my form bars to completely unbind (my action bar doesn’t swap to my cat form bar).
I’ve been logging out and in to solve it but think I may have found a workaround- unsure if it’ll work for Rogues or other stealth classes though.
Enter Prowl (stealth) then turn into flight form from stealth.
This seems to break the stealth animation and fix my bars but as I say, I don’t know how it’ll work for Rogue. Could you try mounting up from Stealth and see?

My action bars seem to be swapping between Normal and Stealth fine, and mounting from Stealth doesn’t seem to have any effect I can notice. I tried mounting the Obsidian Nightwing too since that’s a transformation mount, but no effect there either.
Same issue here. Stuck in stealth stance with no buff visible to indicate this. Stealth conditional macros broken. Very frustrating.
I’ve been having this, has been since patch release even before going to the new zone so likely unrelated to phase diving. I actually think it is cool to have this like how Demon Hunters have a special run animation, but it definitely is too glitchy right now.
This is also happening for me if I use Running Wild on my Worgen druid. Required a relog to fix it.

This also happens if you use Shadowmeld. Strange bug.

Can confirm, getting stuck in stealth animation randomly. I’ve yet to pinpoint something that causes it. It also makes your mount do stealth animation/strange movement. Sometimes vanish and then stealth/unstealth will fix it, other times you have to relog. Really strange bug, hopefully it gets addressed soon.
The fact that it breaks stealth macro conditionals makes this bug way more impactful than it looks

This need more upvotes, so it gets full attentions and fix asap. This is very annoying and critical bug for stealth classes.

How does something this obvious get by all the pre-patch phase. What are you people DOING???
sounds like something wrong with the UPDATE_STEALTH event.
Stealth bug and the graveyard bug in bgs having to type /pvp to rez with 1 health are some pretty major bugs to make it through PTR
