Amazing utility, saved so many teammates in pve/wvw in daring rescues, i’m just a helpful thief like that.

My one question, sometimes when I stealth into Shadow’s Embrace, i can exit and remain stealthed for the full duration walking around like idgaf i’m stealthed innit. Other times, i’m revealed the instant i leave the house. Can anyone tell me what the rule is for this and exactly how it works, haven’t been able to find many details.

Thanks very much

First of all, the utility is called shadow refuge, shadow embrace is the trait that removes conditions on stealth; second, and answering your question, you must remain under the little house for 4 seconds (or inside the circle, to be precise), after this 4 seconds the little house will disappear and you can leave stealth and remain stealthed for 6/7 more seconds, or until you do an action that is considered doing damage (for example, attacking, or using the stolen skill from engie, gunk); if you leave before the little house goes away, you will lose stealth.

Adapt or die. I never die.

Perfect, thank you very much!

Shadow Refuge, yeah that does suit it much better… I hope to one day take you into my shadowy bosom to show my appreciation.
