Stealth & channeling spells
Any reaction, no?
I get tracked and attacked by mobs when stealthed (and I am not channeling), it is ridiculous. What is the point in having a stealth escape if they just keep hitting you anyway?

Stealth does not prevent from taking damage and does not make you invincible.
It’s working as intended. You have to use stealth after channeling ends.

No it does not make you invincible, but it’s not working as intended.
Scenario: Opponent starts channeling a 5 second spell. After 1 second you go in to stealth. Opponent’s channelled spell continues to track and hit you (who are now invisible) as you move/dodge until the 5 seconds has ended. The spell is locked on you until the channel ends no matter what. You can start the channelled spell and go make coffee while still hitting the thief, who went invisible and quickly ran behind you, for the full duration of the spell.
What should happen: The opponent should lose the now stealthed target and continue to channel the spell in whatever direction they are facing. If the thief cross the channelled spells path he/she takes damage of course. The spell should not auto-track the invisible target.
Another scenario: Opponent starts casting a spell with a 3 second cast. After 1 second the thief goes in to stealth. The opponent continues to cast the spell for 2 seconds while auto-tracking the now invisible thief. The spell then proceeds to hit the invisible thief like a heat-seeking missile. The invisible thief must waste endurance to dodge the tracking spell to avoid it.
What should happen: The spell should fire off in whatever direction the opponent is facing.
