Currently Moonlight puts the sin into "hiding" (hidden from *certain* mobs only like tao hiding) but can only walk whilst doing this. I thought you were able to Run during this?

Also, supposed to do greater damage when attacking in this mode - is this true atm?

Just thought I'd ask, in case this was meant to be for Stealth (invisibility, but can only walk)

I do believe it's meant to force you into a walk (Being some kind of a "sneak" attack), as last time I checked and from any film i've seen, no one can sneak when their sprinting about lol.

Whether or not it's meant to deal extra damage as you attack out of it, i've no idea. I know this was the case on Mir3 before they changed it though

Yea, u should be able to run after u cast moonlight, also 1st hit from moonlight should be a crit.
Stealth/sneak is the one where u can just walk and it drains ur mp..

Re: Moonlight Not working as intended?

when u use moonlight u should go completely invisible to all mobs and players and move at walking speed ( unless cast SwiftFeet ) when u come within 2 spaces of a Player u become Semi Hidden ( transparent like taos hiding ) u shouldnt be able to use any skills whilst under MoonLight except Swiftfeet. and when u come out of Moonlight with an attack should be critical hit.

dno what stealth or sneak are but they arent mir 2 sin skills ( forgetting Private Servers )

Re: Moonlight Not working as intended?

Hey guys,

Sin will not be completely official, and moonlight will not turn you invisible to players as it may have done officially on other servers.

We have to try and find a balance when it comes to some of the skills and having the ability to move whilst in hiding requires a limitation (hence being forced to walk, I am pretty sure this is official anyways).

Re: Moonlight Not working as intended?

Moonlight:
Hide yourself from monsters by turning invisible. Greater damage is done when you attack monsters using this skill. 15 second cooldown.

Although says nothing about being able to run or walk in this state, but it also certainly doesn't say hidden from player or extra damage to players so....

Re: Moonlight Not working as intended?

Thanks for replying!

Is there a plan to add a Stealth spell later on in the game, where it does make you invisible to players, at the cost of HP/MP per second + forced to walk or something?

And would you then perhaps add a counter to that spell, "Oracle" (reveals invisi units in an XbyX area) to make tao's more useful? Could then start making certain bosses invisi, requiring oracles to hit it etc...

I'm only asking because you have the potential to make some really decent spells/counter spells to make each class a bit more useful/unique, instead of the stuff we've already seen day in day out for 12 years :P

Quite like the idea of a tao spell to reveal hidden characters, aslong as it has a cooldown(otherwise you could all stack near the tao and he spams the spell giving the assassin no chance to ever show up like a ninja)
