Does anyone know what this new effect means if anything? I am on console so it's not from an addon. It came in last week with the maintenance. It's starting to get on my nerves so I wonder if we can turn it off? :p

Sorry for the Pic, it's not the best. Open the picture in a new tab and you will see it slightly better.

    That’s it. And it can’t be turned off except by forgoing the skill.

    I see, thanks for the info guys. Although I really don't know why we needed this effect. Skill description is "to detect stealthed and invisible enemies around you". So unless they are hidden, shouldn't see anything imo........ Description says nothing about Undead or Daedra.

    *Shrugs* Just another thing to get used to I guess lol.

    What you quoted is what the active part of the ability does. You will see an eye over your character’s head when you activate it, signifying the reveal buff.

    The revealing of daedric and undead enemies while the skill is slotted is related to the nature of the Fighters Guild as the hunters of daedra, undead, and werewolves. I suppose the idea is that if members of the FG are going after certain enemies specifically, they should be able to identify those enemies more easily. On a more practical note, since FG abilities do 20% more damage against those enemies with the Skilled Tracker passive, it’s a way of indicating when you’ll get the bonus too.

    ETA: Before the recent change, Banish the Wicked also gave ultimate for killing those specific enemies too.

    I'm pretty sure I see the same thing on my Magicka chars who have the Mage's Guild version slotted so I am going to have to double check that....
