Shadow Strike?

Dear TRs, I would like your feedback on this.
As an avid PVPer, I often find myself up against TRs using Shadow Strike. The animation is obvious and it's very easy to dodge the attack. Now, would it make sense to you if I dodge your Shadow Strike (a strike that gets you back in the shadows), that your stealth meter should NOT be refilled?
Thoughts?

I agree. If you dodge Shadow, it should not refill your meter. Its HAMSTER sammich
I hadnt throught on reporting it as such.
That said, I don't use shadowstrike in pvp. So of course it would be great for me if my opponent couldn't go back in stealth. However for anyone's build that is permastealth or semi permastealth it would absolutely kill that build.
I disagree.
Good permas would still be good, bad ones would get worse.
A good perma generally doesn't ever use Shadow Strike "not" in stealth.
I use SS myself.

Even if they are in stealth I still see that animation and also hear the sound. Good perma will be fine against bad players but for those that pvp alot I think it will be dodged often.
It would be nice though if everything could be dodged. Would add more advantage to quick reflexes.

So I am in stealth and use SS and you dodge it? You should never see it coming.
The only true dodgers are CW/DC/TR...you are now leaving GWF and GF on an island.
Of course you can dodge it. Just because you're in stealth doesn't mean you cannot miss. I do agree that the damage is total HAMSTER, but refilling a stealth meter is a huge advantage. Anyway, not sure if Devs will ever look into it. Just throwing out some ideas.

an island with unstoppable, prones and a shield... They will manage
If you blink out of our range you can still have us waste SS and make its countdown start without us getting our stealth back ^^
I can assure you this will never get changed, and is working as intended.
This would not affect permastealth rogues.
Finally, a decent counter argument. Though, personally, I think a symmetrical high risk mini-game of Cat-and-Mouse between TR and a good dodger would be more fun than the existing asymmetrical situation.
There's actually another counter argument. If it were changed, it would mean TRs could stealth refill from a GWF but not from other classes (assuming GF could block it too). So, that introduces an unnecessary imbalance. Dodgers can already avoid the daze so that should be sufficient.
I do not think anyone would lose any sleep over it, if it is never changed. But you can see why it is perceived as an odd mechanic at first glance...
and that is why its never getting changed.
Yeah pretty much this. :O
Exactly. TR's depend on stealth - take it away and were dead. period.
This whole thread sounds counter-intuitive.
I think all abilities from all classes, if the ability is dodged, then the attacker who used said ability should not reap the benefits from the ability if the ability has been dodged.
