Nothing of that was mentioned in the patchnotes, but it has been a big rumor during the last few months.
I won't see pts until tomorrow evening as it stands now. Can someone please test this and report if it still works or not ? :blush: I would love you

    Uhm that would be stupid, no class should have such a powerful ability with no way to counter it. Detection Pots are specifically for DETECTING those who are invisible.

    Yeah would be useless if detect pots didn't detect.

    Though with all the cloak nb's that are going to appear i guess radiant magelight will be a must.

    Funny thing is I have never had magelight detect an NB before they attached me, I have had Detect pots work though. Not convinced at all the magelight does anything significant for detection.

    Oh i never said anything about it actually detecting people, it's completely useless doing what it's supposed too.

    I just use it so i don't get 1 hit by snipe or stun locked + killed by ambush/suprise attack, i get 3 hit but atleast i get a hit in.

    I agree. That's why I'm asking :D I want to know, how much done we non-NBs are.

    Magicka NB main here. I should hope the pots reveal us... that's the whole point. It's just unreasonable to think otherwise...
    Main: Breton Nightblade "Shadow Cleric" (Sustained Damage/offhealer) 5L/2H - Resto + S&B
    Alt: Argonian Dragonknight (Stam DoTs/Tank) 5H/2M - S&B + Bow
    Alt: Nord Templar Berserker (Rawr) 5M/2H - Dual Wield + Two Hander
    Alt: Altmer Sorceror (Pewpew) 7L - Destro + Resto

    You would become unkillable GODS, if it wouldn't reveal you anymore. I hope, someone can test this as soon as possible :(

    Do not think Radiant Magelight reduces the damage of attacks out of Cloak -- they do not receive the Sneak Attack damage to begin with; and since 1.6 Magickablade skills stopped applying Sneak Attack bonus modifier at all.
