[Rogue] Stealth mounting

[Weazool]

If you attempt to use your mount while in stealth you get a "You are in a shapeshift form" wich should not exist. I'm pretty sure that anyone who has played a rogue during vanilla can confirm this message did not exist / and mounting worked out of stealth. Thank you.

As far as I know, it's working as intended and the same on other private servers.

Here ya go:

/run --CastSpellByName("Stealth")
/run mnC,i,ub,p,st=0,1,UnitBuff,"player","Stealth" while ub(p,i)do if string.find(ub(p,i),st)then CastSpellByName(st)elseif string.find(ub(p,i),"Mount")then mnC=1 end i=i+1 end if mnC==0 then UseAction(36)end

Just put your mount on action slot 36 or change it to whatever you prefer.

Back in days i was using Ezdismount to avoid this kind of issue ^^

EDIT : oh sorry i read it wrong ^^ . Yes you are right

[Weazool]

Excuse me, but i didn't say "dismount" let me be more specific. First off, the message displayed is "You are in shapeshift form" wich is incorrect.
Second of all, isn't that add-on for DISmounting prior to using any spells or abilities? I'm saying clicking the mount macro while stealthed should use the mount instead of displaying the message, same as it uses food, poisons, potions and any other usable invetory item.

I was able to find this video from vanilla. The rogue clearly is able to mount from stealth which doesn't cancel until mounted. Indeed looks like a bug.

Thanks for the video, we will look into it.

Not a bug on a 1.12 server. Fixed a long time ago during beta.

This video is before the change to the stealth mechanic that happened during Vanilla. The same one that made NE hunter become visible at the beginning of an Aimed Shot rather than when the arrow is shot.
Cf. Patchnotes

The thing that *might* me a bug is the error message in itself, but in no way you should be able to cast your mount and remain stealthed.

[Switchblade]

could you give us this patchnote please ?

anyway, rogues could atleast be able to use their mount from stealth, even if it cancel the stealth at the begining of the cast. this wasnt working during last Beta

Patch 1.10:

"Stealth and Invisibility effects will now be canceled at the beginning of an action (spellcast, ability use etc...), rather than at the completion of the action." - http://www.wowwiki.com/Patch_1.10.0


And after a quick google search I ended up with the following quote:
"Although it's not in the patch notes, as of 1.10 Stealth (Shadowmeld, Sneak) will break at the START of a spell-cast, rather than the end. No more mounting from stealth, no more Aimed Shot'ing from Stealth." - http://wow.allakhazam.com/forum.html?fo ... 3135259369
