Cabal suppressing stealth?

Here's something I just noticed and was looking for someone to verify.

I was running some flashback Croatoa missions and anytime I got close to a Cabal enemy, my stealth would get suppressed. I finished up the flashback and went out into Croatoa to test it some more and the same thing happened.

My lvl 50 /Dev blaster has Cloaking Device and a stealth IO. Whenever I got within 5' or so of a Cabal witch (levels 25-30, minion through boss), my stealth would suppress down to 15', which is normal for Cloaking Device.

Can anyone else verify?

Yes, I can verify this as well, using an Unbounded Leap: Stealth.

It looks like they have the same effect as Longbow Eagles. It was explained a long time ago [by Castle IIRC] that in order to have the AI stay ranged there is a melee range 'aura power' around Longbow Eagles that caused them to fly away if anyone gets within melee range and triggers the power. The 'aura' is flagged as an agressive action, so it will suppress stealth as well.

Ah, very interesting and good to know.

Edit: Found the name of the power. Type [Positioning] in game to see details.
