Shades Cloak Ability Range

[Arka3L]

I do love me some slash and dash, but i also love the stealth gameplay that we can get away with in Warframe. I sunk a lot of money into getting Shade, but bluntly disappointed with the cloak mod. It activitates WAY too late. I have to be sitting around a corner with an enemy about to step on my toes before the cloak activates.

Does anyone know, since there is 0 feedback on the wiki, that upgrading the cloak mod increases the range that Shade detects enemies? Thus entering stealth much sooner? At this point, the mod is almost useless from my experience.

Thanks

yes DE_Steve officially stated this just today. Leveling up the Ghost mod means it will activate from a further distance from enemies. I was wondering the same thing but assumed it did so I have been leveling it. YES it activates much sooner now and it almost like a Spidey-Sense style early warning system.

it does increase the range.

however, this still won't prevent enemies from "detecting" you because shade doesn't cloak itself. it's funtion is more of a protection while you reload/revive people etc.

All my stealth kills are when Shade uses Ghost to cloak me. They don't detect it unless they see it while they are in a passive/patrol state.

yes, levelling the shade seems like increase the shade enemy detection range, atleast, that is what i feel

There must be decisions to cloak Shade too.... The idea of being able to creep up on enemies in cloak, regardless of oncoming direction is a must have for stealth loving players.

Just not to create new topic I'll ask in here: what purpose of ghost ability level upping?
