Camoflage Question

Jupi · Post by **Jupi** » Fri May 05, 2006 12:44 pm

What affect does camoflage have on ur stealth? I dont know the game mechanics behind it thats why i'm asking. Had camoflage up last nite plus mastery of stealth 4 and this guy runs straight at me and pops me, didnt think it was possible tbh or am i missing something?

Camo only stops MoS.

SL can see straight through it.

However, I have had a couple of alb mincers do the same thing to me. So, it does make you think hmmmmm.
So I know how you feel about it.

Radar apparently doesn't spot stealth.

SL see's right through it (though I think if you've got it up too it counters it??).

Camo just negates MoS we will still be spotted by thoose using stealth lore near you.
main artifacts that give it i think are ring of dances, cyclope shield and staff of gods so mincers might easily have it.

Aye, and the infiltrator deathblow-buff also sees through camoflage, basically they get a mini-stealthlore when they kill someone, which can also be very annoying when u think ur safe ;P

I've had situations where I've been beelined from silly distances on my stealthers too, not sure why/how it happens - as mentioned already radar wont pick up stealthers and fetches anyone who uses it an insta-ban on US now also anyway. Last weekend I was heading towards nGed from Behnn and a fg Hibs with an RR7 NS leading them just beelined me from clipping drew his weaps at around 1.5k units and charged me on my infil, have MoS3 (not that MoS makes a diff. assassin vs. assassin) so I really have no explanation for it, it's happened a few times and I fail to beleive it's just luck - the beelining and stopping as they reach you is just too perfect - it's too big a range for SL too. If it's like 800 units or so then chances are it's SL (unless you have low stealth then it'll be more) if it's more than that then I'd say it's pretty suspicious. Has anyone heard of any exploits/cheats or even bugs to see stealthers from afar that would explain these kind of situations?

Noticed that sometimes lately when an enemy assassin lags u can see the "ghost" near where it is and with a bit of luck u find it right there when lags goes away.

Yeah seen that too but I don't think it explains them beelining to your current location.

thought that camo negates the "Detect Hidden" Infs/Sb's/Ns's get? or is it just me?
