one suggestion to the decrease of stealtgh in grp/whatnot would be (yes im gonna steal a idea from Planetside here) to make the stealther completly invisible while not moving. when he IS moving he is visible by 30% or just seen as the shademode stealth is atm.. OR u could make the shadow visible even if the stealther is stealthed... i mean.. walking in full sunlight and not even cast a shadow? isnt assassins and the like meant to work in shadows? ive always had a slight problem with that part...


the problem is you seem em so easy as they have name tag over their head and in ps stealthers get ranged weapon :)

Well it seems mythic implemented some of the changes although not always in a way I thought about them...

- The stun component on the Albion thrust style, Dragonfang, has been reduced to 5 seconds. We will be offering a respec for those affected by the Dragonfang change before this change goes to the live servers.


^-- Stupid change mostly due to not adressing the overall problem which exists for the blade ns/slash inf and simply listening to whines and lowering DF to the same efficency as DB doesn't really cut it. :l

Nightshade

- The damage of the Nightshade's line of shouts, Dart of Night through Lance of Night, has been increased.


^-- According to what I have heard they have changed the delve of the instashout to 100~ or something like that which brings it in line with what I intended (go mythic \o/)

Well, you have to admit it tbh, 9sec on an easy to pull of style was abit nasty, making a class able to take classes an assasin shouldn't in normal melee. But its a good thing, I see your quite a high RR, maybe you'll be happy when some of the fotmfils will reroll or quit cause they can't DF4tehwin, will certainly decrease the amount of them in realms across all servers imo, but the way they did it was too hard, also like 40% I think it was on LA.

Yes Pre LA fix SB's was sick, just as DF/mercfils are, infils still have the 2.5x, and the very high dmg that comes with slash spec, so hopefully the people who play an infil for the type of class will stay on, and the stealthzerging/fotmfils will move on.

The Spymaster ML9 is kinda a boost to the solo stealther, true it takes a LOT of work to get there but only really dedicated stealthers solo anyway.

15 seconds is enough time to kill someone, rest are mezzed and you can leg it ;)
