Stealth Icon/Transparency desyncing from actual stealth
Posted: Tue Jul 29, 2025 11:53 am
I've noticed this a few times on other characters, but I didn't realize what was going on until someone PMd me about it happening to me. People are getting stuck with the stealth icon and semi-transparency that come and go with stealth (often with a delay of a few seconds. Presume on heartbeat?). These effects are only stuck for other players viewing the character, not to the person actually playing the character.

A character who is not stealthed, as viewed by the player. Meanwhile, I thought everything was proper and normal.

Toggling stealth on and off a few times didn't seem to fix the problem as viewed by other players, but relogging did. I've seen this bug affecting a few other chars, but I didn't realize what was going on until it happened to me. Posting this with the hopes that people can figure out a pattern to what is actually causing the effects to get stuck.
