    Ok let make stealth super real. You can hide only crawling or by using camouflage. And you can't hide 100% when you move and when you move you must go veeeery slow, like in rl. It's a game and hiding and sneaking is simplified.

    Giving ability to stealth only to 1 class would force pvpers to reroll to NB or move only in groups. Even casters would be easily killed by small group NB with bows without even seeing enemy(before saying magelight check range of ml and bow abilities).

    Then in order to balance, ZoS would be forced to restrict NB melee weapons only. Basically it would mean that you can't use any weapon with any class. NB only DW, templars 2h, DK sword+shield and sorc sticks. It wouldn't sound like TES game does it?
    not what people are asking for. if anyone actually wants NBs to be the only class that can sneak, then they just don't like getting ganked/jumped. all the classes should be able to sneak, just NBs need to be able do it better. ALL of the classes atm, can sneak in broad daylight like they are all masters of stealth. only the class THAT IS BUILT AROUND STEALTH should be able to sneak that well. all classes should be able to sneak when in shadows, behind walls/trees(etc) and all the basics. but only the rouge/ninja class should be able to sneak in broad daylight. only NBs should be able to sneak/ crouch walk across a road/field completely covered in sunlight, only NBs should be able to remain undetected by people 10 feet in front of them(exaggeration). only NBs should be able to do what experts/masters in stealth can do, as NBs are supposed to be experts/masters in stealth. not DKs and sorcerers and Templars.

    Samadhi, I'll check and report back in T-minus 7 hours. :D
    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    Night's Silence set is confirmed to not be working but multiple sources at ZOS. I'm not sure what speed increase you are seeing, but it's not from that set. When 1.3.x is released, it will be working and at a 60% increase.

    The current stealth mechanic is a pretty good placeholder until hardware progresses to the point that they can enforce maximum shadows/foliage/draw distance and have realistic shrubbery in all corners of Tamriel.

    Also, I've seen an entire armored brigade camouflaged to the point where you could be 50 feet away and not realize it, I'm sure a guy in heavy armor wouldn't be too much trouble.

    They could at least increase magelight detection radius.

    That "other morph" no one uses does. It's in game, people just choose the 20% crit instead.
