Stealth Bug

[EtoilePirate]

I have two stealth skills I use -- Stealth, and Slip Away.I was fighting in a group in Cazic-Thule tonight.  Intermittently, I could not use any stealth attacks while being stealthed under either one of these skills -- I'd be told I needed to be in stealth to use that skill.  However, sometimes my skills worked.  Server dropped before I had a chance to try to pin down a cause but it's very frustrating.<div></div>

 could it be possible that you are trying to use this skill on a mob that can see thru stealth/invis? if this is a change they put it, it may be why your getting that message.<div></div>

I'm in stealth, using either of my two normal 12-hour stealths.2.) The tank pulls the mob.3.) I remain in stealth until I approach the area of the fight.  Then, either4.) I attack the mob with one of my positional, stealth-based attacks, or4a.) an AOE of some kind de-stealths me first and I improvise.But that was only working about 50% of the time.  The other 50% it was this:</span><span>1.) I'm in stealth, using either of my two normal 12-hour stealths.2.) The tank pulls the mob.3.) I remain in stealth until I approach the area of the fight.  Then,4.) I discover that all of my stealth-based skills are still tinted red on the hotbar.4a.) I try them anyway and discover they won't work.4b.) I resort to using my evade-and-stealth and my attack-and-stealth which both ar suppsoed to give me 30 seconds of in-combat stealth4c.) I discover that the mob is dead by now anyway because I spent so long finding a skill that would work.</span></div>

My 31 Ranger has been experiencing this same thing. It's very frustrating to miss half of a fight because you're stealthing / unstealthing trying to get the stealth attacks to go off. Sorry to rez a topic that's several days old, but I just got forum access.<div></div>
