[4.0.1.0044] Ajamuut's Stalking Cloak Doesn't Stun From Invisibility

[guildwriter]

Not sure if this is a bug or not.  Ajamuut's correctly adds Bushwhacking damage when attacking from stealth as well as the stun.  If you use Smoke Veil and attack through, Bushwhacking damage is added but there is no stun.  Technically speaking Smoke Veil is invisibility and stealth is its own thing which is why I'm unsure if it's intended for Bushwhacking to take effect at all with invisibility active.

 

I will say though that if it's not intended for Ajamuut's to work with Smoke Veil and other similar effects then the cloak loses a lot of it's luster.

Funny. With Whispers of the Wind (makes you invisible) it still works.

Yeah I have no idea what is going on.  I opened up from Smoke Veil using Confounding Blind, Crippling Strike, Regular Melee and nothing.  Then I tried from stealth and it worked every time.

Maybe the invisibility from Smoke Veil is not coded correctly.

Tested this over and over just now.  Only time I can get the Bushwhack stun to occur is opening out of stealth.  Every attack from smoke veil does not proc it ever.

What about Shadowing Beyond and Assassin's Slippers?

[Lanyx]

I have this same problem when trying to proc the assassin passive with wizard spells from stealth. It works only if it's the first hit entering combat from stealth, once in combat I can't trigger it with shadowing beyond. Auto attacks work for me though, with all forms of stealth, just not spells.
