WTF happened to the Stealth Theif?

Post by Crehalen »

Ok I havn't used my theif in a month or so, I get on him stalking my prey and when I snoop with 100 snooping I get revealed. wtf is up with having a skill if you get detected even at GM? I mean we have Pk's who gank in packs, a butt load of Hally Wacking Mages but we can't have a skill that has been legit with stealth and stealing? I think its lame and I am disapointed. Why did this change? If you are a stealthy theif with gm snooping like a Ninja you shouldnt be detected unless the character has detect hidden. I think that is the only legit reason a stealthing theif should be detected if the player has detect hidden and u snoop them while hidden you should be revealed. Other then that bring it back so you can snoop while hidden or my theif is just another noob who can just steal. might as well drop stealth all together and get magery...oh wait I have one of those already....

Second Age is the most accurate emulation of the UO: T2A era online today.

if you hide or use invis jewelry before snooping, you will not be revealed.

can you hide, stealth up to the target, and hide again, then snoop, without revealing yourself?

You are only revealed if you're in stealth mode and snoop.

If you're hidden and snoop you're perfectly fine from the action revealing your character.

Pretty much in basic terms... if you hide after entering stealth you will not be revealed by the snooping action.
