What is pulling me out of stealth now in 10.2?

Anyone have any idea what abilities are now pulling rogues out of stealth?

I was literally just waiting at Light house in a random BG after I rezzed, I had not attacked anyone and I had no dots running on anyone, literally nothing happening on my side other than waiting for a good time to sap cap or open

I randomly got pulled out of stealth and the dude sitting at LH wasnt casting anything?

Super confused and annoyed because it happened multiple times that BG for me and I have no freakin clue why

detect invis potion? idk lol

But on this I wish sepsis didn’t pull you out of stealth after a vanish the 10 second use of stealth ability knocks u out of stealth every time.

I don’t think so, the only person at Light house was running around on a mount, I was just waiting until he got close to the flag for a sap/cap, if he used any ability he would of been dismounted

I know that the 2 set bonus for Assassination rogues pulls you out of stealth, but I had no dots up so I am honestly completely confused by this

Did you run over a buff, like the Spectral Sight crystal in Blitz?

It’s not uncommon to have stealth removed for no reason at all just moving around doing nothing. It’s not just rogues though. It happens to rogues, druids, hunters in camo, etc.

Also, it’s not something new. It’s been happening all of DF and in earlier expansions as well.

It’s happened to me randomly, but is extremely rare. Nothing showed on the combat log, no one was targeting me, they didn’t even go after me because I was far enough away I could restealth before anyone noticed.

Yeah, I’ve had it drop when no one was even within 60 yards of me. It doesn’t happen often, but it happens.

Maybe someone farted in your general direction? Anything can pull you out of stealth these days with Blizzard’s awesome coding.

Originally, I had a hunch, but hadn’t tested it in a BG before…

But having tested it on my druid, I can now confirm that it happens.

A player can drop a Sagacious Incense in a BG, it has a fairly small range, but enough to be near a flag if dropped in the right place. They last for 30 minutes.

As soon as you get close, it pulls you out of stealth. There is nothing in the combat log, because it isn’t combat and as soon as you leave its range, the buff falls off.

It’s probably not the only thing that causes this, but I can confirm that this item has this interaction.

Interesting find, should probably be reported as a bug but in my case I don’t think that was the cause. I was able to restealth and continue normally without being brought out of stealth again (I moved away from where I got unstealthed, then went back and it didn’t happen again).
It was at lighthouse in that battle for Gilneas map and I think I also had it happen in Isle of Conquest and in the open world.

There might be something to that, but it still wouldn’t explain all instances of having stealth removed for no reason. I have clips of stealth removing itself even in the open world with nothing 100 yards near me.

Literally everything I made a post as well.

So potentially… i have seen this happen but if the enemy Spriest is sending those ghouls out and if you die and release the ghoul will go across map and hit you breaking your stealth. It wont register damager / a visual que but the idea will hit you and break. I believe, that is what is happening.

That can happen, but it doesn’t explain every case. Sometimes stealth just drops for no reason at all.
