Question on NB stealth

LovesLost13
Question is more towards the Dark cloak and shadow cloak ability. I used this a long time ago ( roughly when morrowind just came out) and I could just spam it and never be caught by Npcs if I ever wanted to get by some.. but recently just started playing Nightblade. Now no matter what I am just instantly seen as soon I use it once even if I am a pretty good distance away from an enemy.. by spam I do mean no real break using it so there shouldn't be a gap in time where I am not stealthed. Were these changed/nerfed to hell against Npcs? Cause its getting annoying to the point where now I see the only point of the ability for is in middle of combat which you know.. Ruins the point of a stealthy Nightblade gameplay.

    Dark Cloak is a Heal now.

    So does it just not actually do stealth anymore?

    Yeah they changed it depending on the morph;

    (I may be wrong, but these should be up to date.)

    Dark Cloak: Cloak yourself in shadow to heal yourself for 32% of your max Health over 3 seconds and gain Minor Protection, reducing your damage taken by 8% for 3 seconds.
    Heals you and grants reduced damage taken instead of invisibility.

    Or the other version of the morph which is;

    Shadowy Disguise: Cloak yourself in shadow to become invisible for 2.5 seconds.
    Your next attack within 3 seconds will always be a Critical Strike.
    Guarantees a Critical Strike on your next attack.

    Heal and 8% damage reduction.
    Taking stealth away from the Bosmer is like taking magic away from the Altmer, making Nords allergic to mead, or making Orcs pretty.
