I’m a huge fan of steal. When traited it can provide thrill of the crime, mug, and hidden thief making it incredibly useful (not even including some of the abilities you can get from it like fear and whirling axes)…but for some strange reason hidden thief trait (makes steal stealth you for 2 seconds) is totally bugged. If you have your auto-attack present (control left clicked on your number 1 ability) so you don’t have to keep constantly clicking to make your no. 1 ability go off, your steal will stealth you but then immediately unstealth you as your auto attack goes off. In addition to being unstealthed immediately (making the trait actually counter-productive in pvp especially because of the stealth immunity timer), you can’t get off an out of stealth ability like backstab or sneak attack. Some recent patch must have bugged it…is anyone else having this problem? This also is occasionally happening with blinding powder (another no-animation instant stealth) if you are in range for your auto attack to go off.
