Wood Elf Detection Radius is ~20m vs Crouched Enemies:

Test Notes:

XBOX NA - Duel - March 18

These images are from the point of a Wood Elf with the only passives on the character being the Wood Elf racial passives. No Medium Armor passives (or any other).

The opponent was a Dark Elf MagBlade in Light Armor.

Also, we flipped the test so that the Dark Elf was detecting. The same issues occured, but the stealth detection distance was shorter, maybe about halved (rough estimate). So Wood Elf passives likely exacerbate the issue.

Obviously, this is game breaking for any stealth playstyle (not only night blades) because it impacts crouch stealth too.

Related, there have been other recent posts about the inability to get stuns/crits from stealth in PvE, I have a feeling their issues share a similar root cause.

Thank you for reviewing this issue.
