Stealth
Note:

• Dismount if you are mounted.
• Hide by either using the Hiding skill, having the magery spell Invisibility cast on you, or drinking an Invisibility Potion. This may also be done with using a smoke ball which requires Ninjitsu and Hiding.
• Once you have hidden successfully, activate Stealth and you will be able to move a distance dependent on your skill. If you have 25 points or more you can automatically activate Stealth by walking a step while hidden.

If successful, you can walk a small distance while remaining hidden. Your character appears gray to you as long as you remain unseen. Any act that would normally reveal you from Hiding (other then moving) also reveals you while using the Stealth skill. The number of steps your character can take while using the Stealth skill is equal to your Stealth score divided by 5. So, if your Stealth skill is at 80, you will be able to take 16 steps before the next skill check. So long as you continue to succeed at stealthing you will remain hidden over any distance.

Although you may run once you have started to stealth, every step will count as two. If you are still running when you reach your next skill check you will be revealed. Because stealthy movement requires a knowledge of hiding and moving within shadows, you must be very skilled in the art of hiding before you find success at stealthy movement. To begin learning Stealth, you must have a Hiding skill of 60 or greater. Stealthing becomes harder as you equip heavier equipment. Leather or Mage Armor is typically best if you want a high chance of success.
