Stealth breaking upon combat, almost like clockwork

i’m starting to get reeeeeeal sick of having to use vanish right after i enter combat just to be able to use the deathstalker debuff.

is having stealth broken by combat so damn consistently a bug or a feature? working as intended?

Stealth has been pretty bad and broken off and on since DF. Worse than it ever was before. We had a short period in DF S4 it was basically all fine. Now it’s back to basically being a repeat of DF season 2, where I just had to quit for 6+ months because Sanguine blades and the tier set’s bonus damage always broke stealth.

We’re basically in that same place where you can be fighting in a BG, die, rez, and you won’t be able to stealth again until all previous dots wear off + a few more seconds + maybe just gonna break anyways for some reason every 10 seconds when no one is around.

Either tough it out or take the break. It’s impossible to tell if and / or when this gets fixed. If you decide to play, play with the mentality it’s working as intended imho. Too frustrating otherwise.

thankfully my issue is being experienced in m+ for the time being. vanish easily fixes pve problems, but i felt like whinging in to the void with the hope of a blizzard dev also being in the void.

my current work around is to pull ahead of the tank.

I don’t PvE much, but when I do, I just try to run with friends or guildies. Having a tank who will understand and work with you makes the entire thing so much more enjoyable. Will never pug M+ again if I can help it now that delves are also a thing as well.

On Outlaw, I haven’t seemed to have encountered stealth breaking randomly anywhere yet, but I have been encountering a lot of things that cause exorbitantly long durations of combat after killing things that prevents re-stealth.

If I have been knocked out of stealth by Nothing/Ghosts in the code, it has been very rare. Unlike Dragonflight’s Brackenhide, which unstealthed me nonstop, even after vanish (though I believe this got proper patched).

I move forward slightly and break stealth before I even attack my target.

I have afked in stealth in an abandoned area and come back from the bathroom to find myself dead.

I will back every one up when they say stealth is broken.

I believe this is a problem at the bottom of the Blizzard to do list. All I can say is Blizzard now has 2 weeks to fix it before I fill your air vents with superfine glitter.

And if I get really angry I will attack the coffee supply and throw out all loose post-its!

It’s not just stealth that’s broken, it’s the entire class. Someone at Blizzard really hates rogues. Just compare this class to the other, watch any rogue who streams just a little bit to see how much this class is making players sad. Just look at the graphs to see which is the least played class in the game after evoker…

BLIZZARD BRINGS OUR CLASS BACK!!!
