It is like that right now aye. In the future it might be adjusted, but theres no actual delay system in place for autosneakers just yet.

Ya I know its not ment to be like hide, even a 3-5 second delay or so would be sweet, 3 seconds id be happy with, enough time to get a stab off and dip. Was just wondering, I know theres much to do

All good, I understand though. It's something I can look at in the near future. I'm not sure how to handle it yet but I have some ideas. 3 seconds is probably a good limit though.

Agreed a small limit would be good, 3 seconds might be too high but we can try and see. Thieves need this too :).

I'm trying to think up though the issue with this. I.E. you could autosneak away most of the damage while leveling if they never attack you. I.E> it could be a random time from 1s to 3s, (average 2s.)

I'd say a 1s window should be OK, more than that would make it too comfortable for assassin's even coming into the room fully throwing hits and leaving before exhausted without getting a single hit by monsters, easy lvling.

Next larger patch you will have a random time between 1 to 2 seconds .

Doing an action will cause the timer to reset to 0 automatically. So it's either the wait time, or an action. Pretty much an action that 'starts' the combat timer (doesn't matter if the combat timer is on).

Should be good. Will have to balance the times depending on how it goes.

1-2 random sounds legit. Better than no time for sure
