ok so i understand the stealth caps but a few ppl told me that combining superior invis + group invis + stealth io would bring an ill troller past stealth cap (si alone does this) and that the remaining invis would go as a buffer for other people's perception? please explain this...i am sick of trying to understand the concept!

As far as my experiences with this, no, the extra invis won't even act as a buffer, so someone with enough percep to get above your stealth cap will see you. All the time.

It's called the stealth cap...not the Stealth cap(foreverybodyceptillusiontrollers)

You cannot surpass the stealth cap...It's a cap.

Everybody has a base of 500ft of perception. From there Perception and stealth are simple adding and subtracting problems.

Take your amount of stealth, Subtract it from the player's Perception and that's the distance he will see you from. Since you are not a veat or stalker, any kind of +Per and people will see you fine.

The only good thing about SI is that it doesn't suppress like other stealths, unless you're interacting with objects.

Actually, I think SI suppresses for six seconds (instead of the normal ten for other stealth powers) when attacked and normal Invis from the concealment pool is the one that doesn't suppress.


"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

it was just a bad idea to give the highest capped stealth power to the lowest stealth capped AT. imho. but then again, how many times do the devs make sense when doing things?

About as much sense as gutting AE cuz people whine about farming, then make it so you can solo missions at full team strength solo just fine for all your farming needs, I suppose.

Oh and making flurry one of my strongest attacks.

Oh, not at all. Just pointing out how,

nevermind, last time I made a backhand comment about the devs and donuts I got a nastygram.
