I kind of find it annoying that progress is halted for capping a point when invisible. Stealth can be useful after capping a point and an unsuspecting enemy runs in to cap it but a couple of problems, one is when an engineer has a stealth gyro active, nearby allies go invisible as well, run into a point and it stays the enemy colour. The other problem, people who don’t know invisibility halts capping progress. I was on the blue team in Battle of Kyhlo Just after clearing out the clock tower a thief thought it would be a good idea to cast shadow refuge on the point. I couldn’t cap it because I went invisible as well, it stayed red. We had beaten the defending enemy players but couldn’t cap because one team member made a mistake.
Maybe if it could be made possible to cap a point while invisible? Or an option to reject a boon?

Players shouldn’t be able to cap points whilst stealth as in my humble opinion, this would primarily centre pvp interactions around stealth (its counter detection and so on) which would narrow the pvp experience.

The second part of your post about your pvp encounter with a thief, who might not know about the stealth mechanic limitations. I’m inclined to support on your suggestion to at least have an option to reject a boon (or cancel it especially stealth without having to enter combat). I think that is a great idea. Something as simple as right clicking on the stealth boon to cancel it.

stealth is not a boon.

I don’t usually play as a thief in PVP, I’m more concerned about gaining invisibility against my will and not being able to cap points.
Could also mention that earlier during that same match I saw one of the thieves icons in the mansion on my mini map, it was staying red even though it didn’t look like there was a red player defending it. I’d guess like the time I was effected the guy had casted Shadow Refuge over himself and the point.
