<div></div>Hey guys Just a quick post on a problem i encountered in the last 24 hours.Has anyone noticed that focus fire is breaking stealth(not always but sometimes).In fact it would be safe to say it breaks around 3/5 times of me trying to stealth then cast focus before using selection,etc. This is a pain in the @ss to say the least.It first happened when i was raiding and just thought that the mobs aoe had kept hitting me even though i was behind the healers at the time <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Then i tried it solo on a grey mob and it happened again. Look forward to hearing if im imagining it or not. <div></div>

Could it be that you are trying to use it while already engaged in combat.  I have found that If I'm not in combat I can  Stealth->Focus->Attack .  Which I most often use with Sniper Shot when soloing a ^^^.  If in combat already Focus will break stealth so you have to Focus->Surveil->Attack,  but given the long casting time of our stealth attacks thats only really good for Selection if you have the full AA on it or Sniper Shot if the mob is debuffed like crazy and you want a big number.  <div></div>

Whats prolly happening which i have noticed too is that focus aim is breaking the stealth triggered by surveillance or long blade not your regular stealth. <div></div>

hmmm focus is breaking stealth but working fine on surviellance/longblade.So perhaps it maybe is bugged as it doesnt alway occur <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div>

I haven't had any problems with Focus breaking stealth but Hawk Dive does every time when it's up.

Focus Aim broke all forms of stealth on me last night. It was rather annoying (in combat AND out)<div></div>
