So there is an unannounced Grim Gamble going on atm.

The reward has been changed... now instead of getting a Maiden's Kissed Chest, you can get2 Maiden's Embrace Chest while the leader gets 1 Stalwart Chest

These chests have 2 new pots in them

Espionage Potion http://i.imgur.com/kuxXI.png
PUTS YOU INTO STEALTH FOR 30 seconds

Revelation Potion http://i.imgur.com/KeTjm.png
Which is same as Detection Potion but gives you 31 detect level so you can see same level sins.

These new potions DO NOT SHARE COOLDOWN with other apothecary or with eachother (they are technically quests).

Damn sexy things. Each has a 10% chance from the new chests but the Stalwart chest can give you 5.

EDIT: The Espionage Pot apparently has a totally wrong description and does the same thing as the Revelation pot. I feel dumb for saving it for TW....

    Too bad it doesn't also give a spark heh.

    There is a standard quest lag when taking these unlike apothecary.
    These things give you quests that award the buff and has a non-trashable 2 minute timer sub-quest.

    I would assume that we can't, but just to be sure does anyone know if we can use these stealth pots while in combat, like sins can use shadow escape?

    It's a POT. Since when can you NOT use a POT in stealth?

    Well, first I must assume that you type stealth when you in fact wanted to type combat, otherwise your response to my previous post would make no sense.

    And second, this is a item the gives you a quest, and the quest is what puts you in stealth, it is no ordinary pot, so we can't assume the ordinary rules apply.

    All I am asking is if someone has tested it yet. Because if the quest didn't take you out of combat (the red circle around the avatar) before you stealth (if you stealth while in combat), it simply wouldn't work, you would still be in combat after stealthing so you would be forced out of stealth again (according to my basic knowledge of stealth mechanics).

    Looks like the ones who didn't goon to 105 get screwed yet again. Half of my server's major players are lvl 105, so the pots are pretty useless for the half of the server who didn't goon.\

    PWI: If there's a cheat available, use it before you get screwed for not using it.

    No one's pointed out that the first pic he posted.... the pot says "increases your stealth SKILL by 30 levels"..... cept it's not usable by assasins who are the only ones that can stealth lol.

    A Sin's SKILLS that put u in stealth say "enter stealth" or "force yourself into stealth". This pot doesn't say it actually stealths you..... Way I'm reading it the first one increases your stealth lvl and the 2nd increases your detection lvl, but sins cant' use them making the first one completely useless........ So anyone actually use the first one yet? See if it actually stealths a non-sin..

    I just tested the 2 new apoth items myself too to confirm the Espionage doesn't put you into stealth. They both don't share the same cool down, but they both do give you the same buff called "Darker Stealth"

    So I tried both pots out a few times. Both seem to increase detection level only. Has anyone got the espionage pots to work?

    Well that's 1 game breaking thing that doesn't work thankfully. Last thing PWI needs is EVERYONE who pks to be able to stealth. Least the detection pots are a step in the right direction, just wonder why it was never announced as an event.

    Your first point is correct, thanks for not being rude about it. b:chuckle

    And yeah... I'm willing to bet that it can be used in Combat.

    Just for the record, I'm really glad I switched my Archer over to do TW instead of my Sin lmao

    Weird, yeah I just checked with my brother and he didn't get one either. Which is a shame because you get 5 of the maiden kissed chests for free in addition the the annoucement. Ah if they can't help sins stealth better, and can't put other classes in stealth, i suppose they serve zero PvE purpose. XD

    Anyway here's the relevant info from the email:
