So long after the release of the DLC and there are still such gamekilling bugs? thats very diappointing.
Do you mean the guards with the detection circles? There are corners that you can hide in. And there's at least one spot where you can hide behind something, so even if you get unstealthed, you don't get detected.
But I'd need to know where exactly you are having trouble to help more. I find Glittering Grotto the easiest heist to do. The Hideaway is my nemesis.

There are some easy locations for the daily, decided to just skip the stupid (for me) and stick with the easy dailies.
Find the difficulty between the different locations very unbalanced, also because of the different sizes of the locations. Also if you compare the thief dailies to the brotherhood dailies, the assasinations are a walk in the park.

So what gear sets are you wearing? Because if you decrease your detection rate AND use objects to hide, it definitely helps. I haven't done the TG stuff in a few years, but I know when I did, I was never detected but made sure I had gear that lowered my detection and was a Bosmer (back when they had decrease detection radius passive). However, since that time, I have also changed my gear sets to 5pcs Nights Silence, 4 pcs Darloc Brae and 3 pcs Night Terror... so NS makes me faster in stealth, while DB and NT reduce my detection radius coupled with Medium armor.

Swap out your 5pc Night’s Silence for Night Mother’s Embrace - and then you have BIS. Also, make sure 2 of your Darloc are rings - and get 2 of the unique Hidden Moon Band which comes with Swift trait already on it.

Now exactly WHY would I want to do this? Considering that 3 pcs Night Terror not only reduces my detection but also reduces cost of sneak as well. Plus, Night's Silence lets me run while in sneak...so I have two detection reduction and 'run in sneak'... so exactly what would your option give me that is better?
Forgot to add... the point of Thieve's Guild storyline is about sneaking and not getting caught, being the best thief possible. It isn't about killing, that's what Dark Brotherhood is for. So as another person mentioned, the gear sets your wearing don't have to be about damage because you shouldn't be focusing on damage anyway, but on stealing and not getting caught. If you are good at it, then you won't NEED to fight. Hence the gear sets that I wear, it's all about stealing and not damage.

f.e.
the top right corner of the grotto, I walked up the ramp (and then to the right) but couldnt get to the item because the "detection circle" guard always stayed inside the top left cave.

Not sure about the invisibility poition, will try it.
This the anti stealth guards still need to see you. If behind or behind cover they will not even if stealth is broken.Do you mean the guards with the detection circles?
