Weapon swapping with sets makes you loose stealth confirmation please.

So there is a lot of talk about this issue, but no confirmed information if it is a bug, or a intended feature. So which is it?
I am refering to your stealth disappearing when your weapon is either the 3rd or 5th piece of a set, and you swap bars. It has become a nusance for me in wabba when my guild goes "dark". If it is intentional, I would like to know please so we can plan acordingly before we crouch.

✭Yes, I lose stealth now when I weapon swap. Don't expect any comment from ZOS. Apparently the mods are only allowed to comment on fluff. -
zgrssd✭✭✭✭This has been in the game for some time now (at least since 1.1). I even repoted it after being pointed towards it.
Back then it also happened when equipping a set hand item.
I think it is a bug. But propably a low priority/difficulty to fix one*.

Theegoliath✭✭✭I just would like some form of acknowledgment from ZoS if it is a bug, or not. I could see it as a tactical move if it is there on purpose. I just havnt seen the devs post on any thread ive read about this topic.
Oh well. Wont stop me from playing : )Edited by Theegoliath on June 26, 2014 5:44PM -
aftershox✭✭Yes I'd like confirmation on this as well. It's hard to know as a player if the stealth bonus e.g. from Nightshade set, is immediately applied on a weapon swap, when the dagger is swapped in or not. Does it make any difference if it's set as your primary or backup weapon set?Edited by aftershox on June 26, 2014 5:54PM'May you walk on warm sands!' -

✭✭✭✭✭yes this happens to me also and i hate it, today i switched weapons and was immediatly seen by not only npc's but also 2 DC enemies that instantly killed me because i switched weapons and lost my stealth. i hate it.Edited by Gilvoth on June 26, 2014 5:54PMbest in slot: is the armor, weapon, clothing look, pet, or no pet, jewelry, race, class, skill choices, amount of DPS, and skin color best fit to you and the way you wish to play and makes you feel good and performs what YOU think it should be.
worst in slot: what you read in zone chat, and forum comment, and forum thread, and you tube video, and live streamer advice, and class rep advice, and guild chat advice, and whisper told you to wear, and use for skill, and dress like, and use for weapon and armor. -

It only happens if you swap towards a weapon set or equip a set weapon. Wheter you had one equipped before or not is irrelevant.theegoliathb14_ESO wrote: »I just would like some form of acknowledgment from ZoS if it is a bug, or not.

This is either a bug that it happens with set items during swap.
Or a bug that it only happens with set items (instead of all weapon swaps).
We can really jsut report it with as clear terms as possible. And wait when this bug has it's due time.
It might also be they think strategically with this part. Maybe stealth is already a bit stronger then intended*?
If so, fixing it now would increase that imbalance. They keept bugs in the Nightblade for some time, simply because otherwise he was too weak.
It's not balance with bugs. Just not making a existing imbalance worse by fixing it now.
