The only thing more buggy and inconsistent than inner light/expert hunter at detecting stealth targets is the servers this game runs on. Really at this point the detect mechanic needs to be changed to do what detect pots do for x seconds instead of the essentially useless thing they do now, the ability even displays the detect sign over your head to let you know you’re being seen.

The radius is ultra small and it is often reported to be entirely bugged as an ability.

If you want to detect Nightblades use Detection Potions, Revealing Flare or Radiant Magelight.

Another alternative is for someone in your group to use the Sentry set, which is low-key amazing for this purpose.

I've always resorted to detect pots, I was just on my Sorc and hadn't crafted any, then remembered "oh, inner light is a detect ability!".

Just seems a waste of magica most of the time to me really, a random tick of boundless is more likely to pull them out.
