What this fixed was the bug that would cause your "sneak" to not work properly if you were self-invis while your smuggle broke. It worked this way Cast sneak (self) Cast smuggle (group) Tank/group mate breaks smuggle Still self-invis Use ability sneak attack You must be stealthed to use this attack....[expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]? I am stealth! Now you can attack in invis after smuggle breaks. Basically it was acting like you weren't invis while sneak was still maintained.<div></div>

Has anyone tested this and confirmed that it works on Smuggle as well as Burgle?
