Sneaking Notification Needs to be Tweaked

I just did a heist for the first time yesterday, and while I considered it to be fun in retrospect, it was the most annoying thing I've done so far in ESO. But that's for another topic ... Anyway, the term "detected" should not appear for every action done in stealth, especially if the PC is not really detected.

You'll have had me looking around at mud-crabs, spiders, and mice, wondering 'What in the world is seeing me? There's nobody here!'

When a PC is lock-picking in stealth, placing an item in stealth, or pick-pocketing out of direct line-of-sight. It should read "detectable", not detected. It would make the situation for dedicated thieves a lot more comprehensive and accurate.

    Good point. Personally, I would also like a radius indicator for BoW detection on heists/sacraments when sneaking and in range to use that weapon because detection when using it seems inconsistent to me compared to just doing basic ledger contracts with the same move.

    I just love being detected when me and the victim are the only living souls around besides a rabbit or something.

    I also wish they'd fix bounties. Why am I getting bounties for kills nobody witnessed? It defeats the purpose of being skilled at it.

    The stealth play in ESO needs a lot of improvement. It feels very clunky and very slow and it's not fun AT ALL with magicka classes, minus MAG NB of course.

    Doing TG and DB with my MAG Templar is absolutely horrible and excruciating boring.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom
    The TG and DB skill lines are so generic and not useful, it's not worth even having them in the game. When ZoS creates skills they need to be meaningful and impactful otherwise they are just waste and clutter.

    I agree about the bounties... in Skyrim if you killed a solitary NPC with nobody around, regardless if it took you twenty strikes, there was no bounty. If you killed any witnesses with a certain timeframe, no bounty. Yet in ESO, you get a bounty even if nobody is alive to tell the tale. EXTREMELY lame.
