Anybody else noticing that, after you steal, it takes a fraction of a second to see what item you’ve stolen? A few patches ago they supposedly fixed some bug where you could steal items from things you could not shadowstep to, and now the game take a moment to check whether or not you can shadowstep to the enemy before granting you the item. Also according to another post I read in the bugs forum, Hidden Thief + Mug now applies instant revealed, as where post patch it would still stealth you.

Getting this after patch too. Nothing else in the game lags at all. The cooldown begins and is visible for a fraction of a second before the actual stolen skill appears to replace it, and this can sometimes REALLY mess up a fight against a Guardian where I want to trigger the Daze immediately after a Steal, etc.

Whatever the Shadowstep check is doing, it’s holding up a HUGE amount of processes for the skill.

I thought I was crazy but yes, timing on several skills seem different now. My steal is getting interrupted resulting in nothing but a cool down timer on my steal. Mug+hidden thief no longer work together.
