Yes! I suffer with this so much..
I put down Shadow Refuge for certain quick runs AFTER telling them to not run off before the SR dome dissapears, and what do they do? Just that……….

Even if its the same people, they do not seem to learn to NOT exit the ring.

Its strange that they die moments later :/

all the times ive seen this happen lol.

anyway, why does SR apply revealed when you exit it to soon? it should just give you less stealth time.

I’m not arguing!
I’m simply explaining why I’m right.

Bug. Never addressed. Never will be.

Doubt its a bug. The duration of stealth it grants if you manage to stay in it is rather high. Not complaining, just saying it has a counter because of that. A really, really easy counter….

Imo it’s a bug. Just think about other pulsing areas in the game, like Healing Rain or Healing Spring: if you get out of the aoe before the pulses are over, you don’t lose the regen buff.

It doesn’t even make any sense to state “every pulse you gain 3s stealth” and then to be revealed if you stay inside for just 1-2 pulses and then get out.

Not going to debate if it’s a bug or not. However, from a WvW and SPvP standpoint, it serves as a good way to counter this powerful aoe stealth ability by using knockbacks. It also means a low health thief needs to commit to staying inside the circle for a few seconds while angry enemies swing around randomly. If you could run out of it at any point just to absorb 2 ticks it would be overpowered.

If players mess this up in PvE the only real disadvantage is that you gotta avoid the trash the hard way or you got to equip pistol and sbow to generate your own aoe stealth (or wait 1 min for the SR cd).

Just a reminder, it acted a little differently in launch:
