Camouflaged Hunter is bugged

It just isn't working. At first I thought I was crazy, then I just I thought "maybe I'm not as close as I thought" while I was in a duel, then I just assumed it was Cyrodil lag, but now after being in a BG with multiple stealthing NB's who were on top of me, I've come to the realization that the ability is just not working.

And if it is, it's not consistent or it's incredibly temperamental and it has nothing to do with the range of the ability. Something is going on and it's definitely not working as intended.

    That skills has been like that for so long that I think everyone just mentally blocks out the active portion of it and sees it just as a passive-only slotable skill. Honestly, it is useless for stealthed (but not invisible) opponents anyway since you'd naturally detect them if you actually got close enough for this skill to work.

    I've had this problem with Camouflaged Hunter for about two years. Additionally, it has NEVER (out of probably thousands of activations) ever displayed "the big red eye" on my screen.

    Wait, if this has been a known issue for years now... why hasn't anything been done to rectify it?

    This is AAA company that grosses revenue in the millions each year, this is completely unacceptable.

    Like I'm actually just dumbfounded now...

    So it wasn't just me? Okay, I was wondering. I was right next to a stealther, hit camo, nothing happened other than getting the eye above me . . .

    The range needs to be increased to 12m just as it is with Radiant Light.

    Fixing bugs doesn't sell new chapters to new players. As silly as that sounds.

    So you do see the eye, huh?
    12m would be great, but I've never seen any evidence that the skill works at all.
    In fact, I have NO confidence that the passive from the skill even works when there's overwhelming evidence that the active attributes of it don't.

    That's an interesting point. It's curious that such a capitalistic model would be adhered to by a company so concerned with other popular social issues today.

    Popular social issues are just that: popular. Companies have been leaning towards popular issues the past few years to hopefully be viewed positively by the consumers who hold those views. It's really just about the demographic you want to appeal to, you find out what they care about, then you start caring about those things too.

    As far as bugs go, how many people are complaining about this bug in the grand scheme of things? Probably less than 1,000 people. Not worthy of a financial investment, or rather not worthy to put it on the top of a prioritized to-do list.
