So you confirm that the patch was based on a single comment on allakhazam? Posted by someone none of us knows, who might as well have accidentally deactivated his sneak or hide?
I mean - no one even reacted to that comment. It was posted and forgotten.
Apart from that - the comment is from June 2003 - that is after Legacy of Ykesha release. I would be surprised that in over three years of Kunark out, in the prime of EQ with hundreds of thousands of active players, no one else ever noticed this or wrote a comment on this.
Of course I have no proof it was otherwise - but I would say we've had it the way it was for a reason (because that's the way hundreds of p1999 players/devs remembered it). To change it on the basis of a single non-contemporary zam comment seems a bit thin.
On a sidenote: Is seeing through sneak+hide really the exact same as seeing through invis to undead, for undead mobs? I am really surprised no one ever posted anything about mobs seeing through IVU there... There's only so many rogues - but many more people who would have moved through with IVU and noticed this...

Did you even read the original response by Sundawg? Sun said that it is intentional for things to see through IVU as it is classic. The snippit that you are refering to was about sneak+hide being seen through which sundawg was also interested in hearing more info about. Nothing has been set because of that one anon post but Sun just wanted to know if anyone has more info on it. The mob seeing through IVU is a completely different question and was answered.
