Thief Stealth Issues

First, I’m posting this in the bug category, because I feel like it is a bug; however, if it was meant to be this way by design, please push this to the suggestion thread….

There are multiple skills, Cloak and Dagger, Blinding Powder, maybe one or two more, that are supposed to inflict a condition on an enemy and stealth you. If the foe is immune to the condition, you won’t actually stealth. I guess this is semi-OK for the dagger skill, but Blinding Powder can be used in an offensive or defensive scenario. The fact that you may not get stealthed by it seems like a bug to me.

Also, if a user stealths, and an enemy starts an attack that auto-targets you….I would think, being in stealth, and moving from where the enemy last saw you, should make it miss; unfortunately, that isn’t the case either.

EDIT: Please read my reply, adds additional insight

Thanks.

I just used Blinding Powder while fighting dredge and, though they ignored the Blind effect, I was stealthed 3/3 attempts.
