Guild Wars 2

Since last patch, or one before, Hidden Thief (traited with mug) has been bugged. It will cause a de-stealth (and be revealed as if I attacked) as soon as the thief steals, and therefore can’t backstab.

Has anyone else experienced this? This has been an issue since last patch, perhaps the patch before.

Yes, this is happening sometimes. Sometimes it doesn’t; I don’t know why, but there’s definitely a problem.

The trait is almost unusable now because of this bug, IMO…

Yeah, I was about to suggest that this thread should be moved over to the Support/Game Bugs section.

I was messing around with this “Hidden Thief” thing. It seems to be made worse if you have the Mug trait. Yes I know if you are already stealthed mug will break it. But now if you steal while un-stealthed the mug seems to auto break it 60% of the time.
