Q:

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Resilience_of_Shadows
The tooltip: Stealth effects that you apply reduce the incoming attack damage.
Number of targets: 5
Radius: 360
Somewhere i red it’s 50% damage reduction but the tooltip doesn’t say that.
Nowhere is written how log it last.
No icons appear, in and out of combat, when you trait it, so you can say “hey it works”.
Nothing change in your hero pannel Stat.

Is it Working? If it works the damage reduction is 50%? How long it last?

It would be nice if there was a buff that appeared alongside the stealth icon to show that you are under the effectss of the trait.

yes it works.

it reduces the damage you receive while in stealth by 50%. this is only for power damage, condi damage is not affected. it also applies to up to 5 allies that you stealth.

it lasts for the duration you are in stealth.

Nice video, a good example of how the trait works.
A icon and a better tooltip are needed in my opinion.

Anet has always been somewhat slow when it comes to explaining skills perfectly and adjusting tooltips. It’d be helpful for team members but as stated before, when you stealth yourself or your friends, it’s active…

It would be especially helpful for stealthing people on siege. Pop refuge on a warrior with ram mastery as they’re hitting a gate and even superior AC fire can be laughed off. Less helpful when they don’t realize the stealth is actually reducing their incoming damage.

I’d think hitting the door will reveal them.

No, you can use any siege while in stealth.

Oh … I never tried :s

That is … interesting. If stealth would also muffle sounds it would be perfect, but -50% damage is nice. Better then the protection skill from Ram mastery.

Would be nice if there was an icon for it. For instance if you have 2 thiefs stacking stealth and only one of them has the trait.

Did you guys use this in WvW in the 2 days before it was stealthily(lol) hotfixed so you couldn’t give gates and walls the stealth buff? I did and it was hilarious(I made a special perma aoe stealth build and I was feeding on the rage of the enemy trebbers).
