So...your Stealth/Camoflauge your Toon...but you Still Show your Shadow?

[Val the Moofia Boss]

I was playing my Hunter in an RBG today, and was camping out a flag while camoed. I was using the /dance animation and spinning around, when I suddenly saw that I had shadow right next to me, even though I was camoed - my shadow.

After the RBG ended, I just went into Org and camoed. Yep - my shadow appeared.

Just hopped onto my Rogue and found that he showed the shadow on the ground even though he was stealthed.

1+ for Blizzard's common sense!

Other players don't see it, though.

Well, makes sense really. You aren't invisible but yes, I think others can't see it.

I have to admit, with the new grass mechanics added. I hope you can still see the grass move when a stealthed person walks through, for it would be so awesome and a good addition to the game. Currently, my only method is when I hear the weird stealthing sound of people going stealth or going too close, I can only swing around and aoe in hope I find them.

The client applies and renders shadows not the server, it's not visible to anyone else but you.
Turn off your shadows in the graphics menu if it bothers you

The "stealth sound" is played on other clients when a stealthed character is near
