Sneak speed penalty reductions are broken

Night's silence set's 5 piece bonus "ignore sneak speed penalty" does nothing. Neither does the green CP that reduces the penalty.

Vampire passive seems to work.

    When exactly will it be fixed please, because until it is fixed, I don't want to play the game. It spoils gameplay too much!

    Night's Silence doesn't work, but Shadow Dancer's Raiment seems to still work fine.

    Please fix this before putting out the console version so we don’t have to wait for another patch either.

    No fix mentioned in todays patch notes. Guess I won't be playing for a while. :(

    Guess it'll let me spend more time playing the one guy I have in Shadow Dancer's.

    It would have been nice to have Night's Silence available for the upcoming event, though.

    Long time player, first time poster! I'm going to add my voice to the chorus here. My main is a Khajiit nightblade built for stealth speed, and this break to Night's Silence feels like going from a fully-trained horse to a new character with no upgrades. It's SO SLOW. To the point that I don't even want to adventure in the new zone because the build I've been playing for years feels so broken. I was hoping this would have been addressed in Monday's patch, but no luck.

    Is "future patch" likely to be in the next couple of weeks? I'm trying to decide if I should change from WW to vamp to get my stealth speed boost back as a stopgap until Night's Silence is fixed.

    You could try scrounging up some Shadow Dancer gear. You'd lose a stamina bonus and crit chance to gain a weapon/spell damage bonus and a double dose of majicka.

    I'm considering it.

    Even without Night's Silence, my pre-update Sneak speed was 100% (I assume due to the Champion Point Sneak-speed buff plus the out-of-combat movement buff plus the Wood Elf 5% Racial movement buff) but post-update has dropped from 100% to 70% for some reason.

    Not to mention that my from-Sneak attack damage has plummeted to roughly less than HALF pre-update levels which might be a bug introduced with the 125% critical damage cap.


    Needless to say, Nightblade movement speed SHOULD NOT ACTUALLY REQUIRE any buff or armor or whatever and we should simply be GIVEN 100% Sneak Speed for ALL Nightblades and a Class Characteristic -- don't you think???

    Annnnd STILL not fixed. I filed a ticket two weeks ago and was told "we'll be fixing it next patch".
    I main Stealth, and virtually ALL stealth related bonuses have been completely broken. My champion's like playing a newb. One more week of this, and I'm cancelling sub. I'm not a salty rage quitter, but this ruins the game for me.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno is there any update on this issue? It's been several weeks now. This bug completely ruins a lot of builds based around stealth speed.

    Players have put a lot of thought, effort, and resources into creating these builds, and currently they are completely useless. It's really disappointing that this fix doesn't seem to be a priority.

    Still busted.

    Seems the current crop of devs absolutely LOATHE even the concept of stealth.

    Is sneak speed and abilities ever going to get fixed? Useless champion skills, useless gear sets, useless abilities. With weekly patches could they at least put a disclaimer on those items saying not working as intended at this time. That way players who don't visit the forum aren't wasting points and gold or crafting materials making something or spec'ing into something that does nothing. We all understand new things have their problems, but when you break something pre existing it should be a priority.

    Doubtful since they haven't even acknowledged it at all. Based on their track record with other bug reports, if they even try to it'll probably be a year or longer.

    Sneak speed bonuses broken, crit damage from Sneak cut in half. Still broken as of Dec. 16. My Nightblade feels like a broken class that goes unfixed.

    Seriously, it's time to find a new game. Can't think of any reason to renew subscription.

    Thanks for the memories?
