It boggles my mind how stealth bug has not only been fixed, but is the worst it’s ever been lmfao. Why have stealth when hero talents simply proccing take you out of stealth? Also it’s the second season and the expac and nothing has been done to fix it?
Small multi-billion dollar company. Maybe one day an intern can take a look at this.
I play Trickster Sub/Fatebound Sin in BGs and WPvP largely because of this, and, even then, UD racial still regularly takes me out. Blizz simply does not care.
Even without bugs, I think stealth needs to be looked at in general, at least from a PvE perspective. It’s quite important for sin and outlaw but they are now designing lots of items around staying in combat, like House of Cards and Eye of Kezan which is very anti-synergistic with wanting a re-stealth when possible. There’s even rogue hero talents that encourage this too.
Even open world as outlaw is annoying because looting and interacting with stuff drops stealth - I think this needs to be looked at too.
Not to mention the sheer amount of stuck-in-combat and global combat events that happen constantly.
bumping this everyday this happens to me
Clean up your add-ons or your computer. There’s a program that looks for procs and will trigger the spellid for stealth to unstealth you. There’s also a problem with the game - but after rinsing my machine a million times I haven’t ran into this problem often. It was a problem that was happening VERY OFTEN when I had an AddOn installed for the nameplates. People are shiesty.
Seriously, everyone. The actual hacky-version of this is like 'GetWindowHandle(Wow.exe){ReadMemoryToFindStealthID;OnBuffTriggerReTriggerStealthIDAsAnAction}'
It’s existed for quite some time. The original thing I found locates when Stealth in the buff panel or something alternative because it’s a widget I think? I’m not posting any actual working code here. This is mega pseudo-code but I’ve reported it once before in its sourcecode variant because I found it within the AddOn OmniCC during one if it’s old, deprecated updates. There was also something in it that changed the spiritmaster to tell me to off myself in the quest text, lmao!
Again, I think there is also a problem with the actual game for this to happen at times but be aware of what can also take you out of stealth. Lots of stuff can break it - especially in an out-of-arena teamfight. Likely a problem with procs as-well as this thing being dropped into your files. Don’t go too wild with obliterating your computer, try it without some of the usual stuff you rely on and see if it happens as often. I haven’t had this happen in weeks.
I can try, but it’s crazy that I, the paying customer have to even do this. All in an attempt to fix a bug the DEVELOPERS will not fix.
Small billion dollar company.
Problem is, we know what abilities are breaking stealth, whole rogue community knows, but blizz developers do nothing to fix it, for several months/years.
Just look at the Singular Focus hero talent - been spamming bug report ever since TWW was released and still not a single fix for that garbage.
Another example is Dragonflight season 2 - 2pc set bonus for assassination constantly breaks stealth and it wasn’t fixed for the entire Expansion !!!
dont use stealth in open world? you have options
Or maybe allow rogues to use their toolkit without being overly punished for it? Just a thought.
your arguing for content that you can blast through with pistol shot
Ah cool so you don’t actually play rogue, good to know.
You’re complaining about rogue in world content, world. Content.
Great post and you are a valued member of the Rogue and WoW community.
Yes, world content, as in the thing that a significant chunk of wow players spend most of their time doing.
I’ve heard so many people say they couldn’t even level a rogue to max because the experience was so awful, and many of those issues persist through to endgame.
So yes, they probably should spend a bit of time looking at the class holistically from all angles rather than adding on a 3% damage buff/nerf here and there and making thistle tea auto-use.
Rogues struggle in world content and leveling with new playres resulted in Rogues receiving buffs and new tools to address this back in the day like Leeching Poison, Combat Readiness, Recuperate, etc and various other glyphs.
world content, where you can play any talent build and still succeed, we should design or balance around it especially with talent trees as a thing
if i want to minmax world content in undermine then i literally swap to gsw and continue to blast by pressing W and thats if i even remember to swap from crackshot to cause frankly the content is so easy that i dont even change my talents.
thats every spec right now, fury warrior comes to mind as well. sadly the game is made for leveling, it wont be for leveling unless they really overhaul the entire system. world c ontent isnt leveling, world content is those elite quests you unlock in the world after doing 3 world quests
they would again have to revamp the entire leveling experience again, they will also have to make leveling slower, the path to making leveling good again is frankly not something people are ready to talk about.
but leveling is different from world content. if your grabbing crackshot while leveling when theres a whole gaggle of options avaliable to you like gs and kir and even gsw then thats a you issue
