Stealth

Description

Stealth allows a character to move silently while maintaining invisibility, but it becomes much easier to detect such a character compared to Hiding. A character must have at least 30.0 in Hiding to be able to use Stealth. Otherwise, the message "You are not hidden well enough. Become better at hiding." will display. Stealthers can be revealed by common practices such as the reveal spell or the detect hidden skill.

Stealthing is usually part of a thief template but there are fun templates such as Stealth archers which can be deadly in large groups. Stealth on this server allows the player to continuously walk while stealthed without "skill checking", meaning there is no cooldown if you do not fail the stealth.

Usage

Simply use the hiding skill and walk in the desired direction. You cannot run or it will break the stealth, so client features such as "Always Run" should be disabled when stealthing. Stealthing around banks will usually result in your reveal, characters often macro detect hidden near the bank. Stealthing with any heavy armor will not allow you to do so.
