Having inner light slotted but going unused doesn’t count because technically you aren’t using the stealth detect portion of that skill. You are using this part “While slotted, your Max Magicka is increased by 5% and you gain Major Prophecy, increasing your Spell Critical rating by 2191.” and any Mages Guild passives.

I don’t pvp in Cyrodiil much anymore since battlegrounds came out. Not much use in BGs either. I’m thinking stealth detect is a relative non-issue for the game which is why Zos perplexed me

Nope. Never and why?

Only by accident if my finger slips and magelight is slotted

The adds in PVE which use sealth, die so fast they wont have a chance to stealth anyways...so not needed.

Just because of this

“While slotted, your Max Magicka is increased by 5% and you gain Major Prophecy, increasing your Spell Critical rating by 2191.”

I have a crit build on my MagSorc so:

I voted yes only because I always have Inner Light slotted on both bars, for the 5% Magicka increase and most importantly the Major Prophecy with its 2191 Spell Crit Rating.

There should be a third 'Other' option on this poll.

I answered no, but.....

When I am PvEing in Cyrodiil, I use it.

No there doesn’t need to be an other option. You aren’t using it to detect stealth. There are other multipurpose skills that people slot for one effect and not the other.
You aren’t detecting stealth in pve, inner light just has to be slotted, not activated.

Are there actually any mobs that start off stealthed, if there are they're so very few and far between it would seem pointless to waste points on a detection skill and why the nerf to Khajiit racials a while back brought nothing worthwhile to replace the loss of steatlh radious reduction.

Outside of thieves guild or dark brotherhood, there's no use for stealth in pve.

What stealth DETECTION do either of those guilds make us of?

Things can stealth in PvE?

Never since the BIG RED EYE is invading my screen

But i stopped also to use it in PVP for the same reason

A lot of people justifying their "yes" answers with the Mage's Guild passive, when OP says specifically that the skill doesn't count if you aren't using it specifically for stealth detect

Honestly, I had no idea it could be used in PVE. Thinking about it there are some common skills where enemies stealth and charge up a heavy, but I'd much rather block than waste resources on something as minor as that.

They can't. The OP is a pointlessly rhetorical question. I'm not sure why it is even being asked.

its being asked because of the bosmer passives rework that essentially made one of them useless for any kind of pve, when they replaced reduced detection radius when in stealth with increased stealth detection. this is likely hoping to make a point to ZoS that their bosmer stealth passive rework may not have been the best decision.
