Sneaking
I'm having issues understanding sneaking, a few particular aspects...
How does sneaking work after killing a player? At times I'll be left in a detected state for a extended period of time, where as other times I'll go immediately into hidden and after 30 levels I have not idea what the difference is...
How does sneak detection work? I find myself in detection duels with other players where I can't detect them and they can't detect me. I can see that I am being partially detected, so I know the enemy is in range, but I never detect them; furthermore, the use of detection spells such as mage light and decection potions seems to not work at all. This has baffled me.
Any answers? Are these bugs or am I doing something wrong?

Mortelus✭✭✭I am also keen to get some clarity on stealth.Who has time? But if we never take time how can we ever have time?0 -
Bumped to hopefully get some feedback. Are there any resources that break down some of the mechanics of sneaking?0

Tiyamel✭✭✭maybe the detection duels are in fact both you and player opposing are both sneaking, depending on class the sneak radius can change, and without actually bumping right into each other you can miss them completely, i have had this happen in PvP a few times, being a NB i have a little bigger sneak range, if you are still having detection issues after killing player, maybe they have not warped back to shrine and that can affect your sneak, seeing as they are still there, they would still be able to see you?Guild Master of Lost Prophecies, small group of friends playing in Ebonheart Pact, recruitment only accessible through playing with us and making a good impression.
