I don’t know if we’ve ever received word from the devs if this is intentional or not. Leap finishers through smoke fields, even if they do damage, still stealth you. Blast finishers do not stealth you if they hit even a nearby critter, and you instantly gain the revealed debuff.
I’d absolutely love to be able to reliably grant myself stealth through a blast finisher, I’d like to know if this is a balance issue or if it’s just a complete lack okittennowledgement. I know for a fact that it’s possible for blast finishers to grant stealth after the damage, since this is exactly what Rocket Boots does. It grants the finisher at the landing point rather than the explosion point.
