5/5 Master of Deception broken?

Recommended Posts

Hi, just started playing here and went for a Sub build and started with 5/5 on MoD, alltho i must say that the mobs even at 2-3 levels lower than me can notice me pretty well, i dont mind MoD being broken but if someone can confirm this so i can just respecc, or acctually i might do it anyways, cheers /M.

I think it has more to do with the stealth ability than the talent itself. At lower levels it feels like everything and anything will see you across the zone yet at higher levels you hardly notice it. Presently running a pvp spec with MoD to farm BRD and I'm noticing a difference in how close I can get to mobs. In fact I can borderline stand directly on them.

I noticed once I got higher ranks of Stealth the problems with it just seemed to go away.

The stealth you get at level 20 seems to work MUCH better than the initial stealth.

No points in MoD and stuff doesn't see me unless I'm right on top of em.

When I was under 20 npcs would spot me a mIle away.

This is on zeth kur server and I'm only referring to npcs spotting me. No idea about other players.

Don't really agree to this.

Level 39 with 5 points in MoD. If I come up to a mob my level from the front he will still see from a couple of meters and will be alerted. If I continue to come closer he will agro. 

So I just find it hard to believe you can walk through mobs without any points in MoD.

But distract works wonders, so I don't really see any problems. Plus I am ambush rogue so I need sneak up from the back anyway

The problem is its not blizzlike. There's been several bug reports on it. Proof from people doing comparisons and more. But the QA team denotes every bit of proof that we give them as "not verifiable", to the point that they have basically said the only way we can prove it wrong is by playing on a Live Blizz server and taking video.

But of course Blizzard doesn't have a vanilla server, so they have set the bar at unprovable levels for Rogue stealth. Its frustrating as hell, and one really has to wonder why on this SPECIFIC issue the QA team is being borderline retarded. We went as far as getting Pottu to tell us what to do. Pottu drew a line in the sand and linked a comparison test for us to do:

 

We did the comparison and found that Elysium servers Stealth detection is broken below max level. Submitted the bug report at: https://elysium-project.org/bugtracker/issue/2088

And they still denied it anyway. Its almost like they are taking this one personally and have decided to leave it broken for some unknown reason. Hand waving away all evidence.

Stealth is boroken as hell on Elysium since launch, in dire maul i literally pull aggro standing stealthed next to someone else, its me the mob goes for. Unless you spec into master of deception bring anal lube around with you.
