Nightblade Shadowy Disguise change bug

LadyLethalla · October 30

Following the (awful) change with this update to SD, the effect does not wear off after the 10 seconds, so my character is transparent/ red, and my magicka goes up, down, up, down, up down while I am not moving. Even if I drink a potion.

If I start moving with this effect still happening, my magicka drains away like stamina when you sprint. I also cannot uncrouch so the only way to cancel this now apparently is to do a dodge roll.

Once I am only hidden and not under the otherwise perpetual SD, my magicka recovers. I hope that was not the intended consequence of said change because it is just terrible. I get the intention, but it's not functional this way - and maybe it's due to stealth CP, perks and possibly armour bonuses. Please fix.

It is intended, while it's active it will always drain magicka (but less if you're still) and recovery is disabled. You need to untoggle it or cast a skill that will pull you out of stealth to inactivate it.

the skill was changed to a full toggle, im not sure if you tried toggling it off manually

that would be why the effect would last 10+ seconds is you have to toggle it off manually, attack, or do something to come out of stealth in order to toggle it off

Okay but why can't I uncrouch?
Edit: also, if it's a "toggle" then casting it again should cancel it, right? But no, that doesn't work either.

Welp, another class down the drain.

Strange. Tried this on PTS and I could un-crouch while cloaked. That itself was problematic though, because the only way to tell whether I was crouching or not was that the camera would move up and down a little.

if your unable to turn off the toggle, that seems like a much larger problem lol
