When did this happen? I was standing in stealth and after 2 minutes or so I automatically was made visible again, my MP doesn't run out 'cause I have enough MP recovery. Why am I so blind do these changes? b:cry

    lol whut?
    if this be true then...nice
    finally a move towards balancing out stealth.
    b:surrender
    it should still only last about 20 seconds or so.
    b:surrender
    or about 5 seconds in it's current form which allows for buffing/potting/sparking all while in stealth.
    b:chuckle

    Kantorek: Yeah.. you should try it. It's awesome.
    Sihndra: Nope- not currently possible under any circumstances. Sorry.
    LokisDottir: I mean...not haunting the forums, nope nope..
    Konariraiden: You don't know what you are up against. You will lose.

    Sins are on par with Clerics when it comes to squishiness. 20 seconds would be one of the worst choices PWI could make in an attempt to balance a class.

    o....k....
    /commence sarcasm
    so....me suppose you must be one of those mindless sins that sit there and get beat over the head yesh?
    b:chuckle
    /end sarcasm

    besides, 20 seconds is more then enough time....
    you can cover vast distances in 20 seconds with maze step as well as two teleports which have a range of 30/35 meters respectively
    b:surrender

    o and you have two invis so that means even if they were restricted to 20 seconds...
    thats still 40 seconds of invis.
    b:surrender

    but it would make more sense for shadow escape to last about 5-10 seconds while shadow walk lats like 40 seconds

    Actually, I'm one of those people beat people over the head. b:chuckle

    I use stealth to wait for short buffs to run out (bramble hood especially), not to cover distances, and besides, with the cooldowns the skills you mentioned, it's brainless using them for that reason. And 40 seconds of jumping isn't a long wait to completely destroy a sin's best survival ability.

    I'm not saying they should bump it back up to no duration, but at least take out the mana drain drawback and some prior warning when they're gonna **** us over.

    well they probably put a duration so sins can't just go perma invis afk world quest or something with their no mp cost stealth.

    I just used stealth on my Assassin and it didn't auto shut off. Tested it for about 4-5 min before I was just wasting pots.

    Not sure what you are talking about. There has been no duration added to stealth that I can see. As per normal, stealth runs out when mana runs out.

    city's lonely heights. With the dawn the city below springs into bustling
    activity, and I don my morning apparel. From on high, I watch the world.

    Didn't run out of mana, I know that for sure. But seems to have stopped happening, so I guess crisis over?

    Any form of aoe of which you are in the range of will knock you out, this includes those done by comrades and those done from nearby duels. Similar to how a duel aoe will knock you from meditation.
    I can see what you see not,
    Vision milky, then eyes rot.
    When you turn, they will be gone,
    Whispering their hidden song.
    Then you see what cannot be,
    Shadows move where light should be.
    Out of darkness, out of mind,
    Cast down into the Halls of the Blind.

    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze
