cloak is bugged

Thedragonlolitucker
Getting pulled out often by single target abilities, gap closers pull you out 100 percent of the time.
Is this a bug or a new feature xd.

    If they'll be able/willing to fix it, than it's a bug, if not, a feature.

    You are most likely getting detected from a detection potion someone is using. The stealthed player dont know he is detected amd still shows as hidden even of hes not. This is to prevent stealthed players to know they are detected from pots because detection pots are supposed to be a counter to cloak.

    Fixed an issue where using a single target charge, leap, or teleport ability would not remove targets from stealth or invisibility while you had a detection potion active.

    ...maybe you misread the patch note.

    Gap closers pull people out of stealth even when the person gap closing is not using a detection potion, I tested this with a friend using various gap closers yesterday.

    I.e. if you were to spam your crit rush button, the NB target of that crit rush wouldn't be able to cloak at all.


    This is not a new bug, but rather a reoccurring one; gap closers used to pull people out of stealth many, many years ago and it took months of forum posts to actually get it fixed.

    ZOS does a great job as always, why fix bugs before releasing new DLC. It will sell anyway.

    a damage over time will break cloak. any aoe will break cloak. if you are to close to someone it will break cloak. 3 seconds is all cloak gives. and the main reason for cloak is not to hide it is to give your the critical hit. You have crouch to hide you, but once you are with in 6 meters relying on cloak, you may be asking to much. cloak will hide you if you go into crouch, and are out of range of the skills meant to un-cloak you.
    I think you are asking a little to much if you feel cloak will save you from being spotted after 3 second, at close range.
    you do know expert hunter, mage light, and reveling flare will not allow you to cloak at all?
    Next you have Dark cloak, one of the weakest heals of any class.

    Seems if Zos keeps going they will nurf the NB out of existence.

    Happens all the time, I think there's specific sets out there take you out of stealth now.

    Detect pots are the main contributor as they also let you re enter stealth but are instantly detected. Cloak has been buggy since Summerset, don't know if OP has had any issues with health desynchronization with cloak as well?

    What other issues has cloak been making?

    Cloak is a 100% bugged at the moment. The only reason why you don't see millions of complaints is because nobody plays nightblade anymore.

    Played magblade yesterday, and encountered the following:

    - Some single target skills will just break cloak, even when you're well out detect potion range
    - Gapclosers will break you out of cloak, this has been confirmed in the class discord
