See invis should see thru hide/sneak. They always did.

See invis saw through low level hide/sneak, not Rogue hide/sneak at higher levels.

I am pretty sure lvls do not impact what can see through hide. Maybe impacts the aggro radius which sneak also impacts even of mobs which can see.

always

the only thing that levels affected was the the agro radius of mobs due to sneak

I recall see invis monsters seeing through Wood Elf "Hide" but not seeing through a high-level Rogue "Hide". So...dunno. These skills all have a ranking, though. Having 50 in Hide vs. having the max cap in Hide probably means something more than just the chance it has of working initially.

PCs with see invis saw through hide.

Mobs that could see through regular invis could not necessarily see through hide.

Have you looked at any of the evidence posted?

[4WOFURY]

If you want to post counter evidence, feel free. Otherwise, there is ample evidence posted that what you state is not the case.

Hide is a class defining ability for rogues. It is not the same as other classes/races hide.

Other classes/races hide could be seen through by see invis/undead.

Rogues were commonly used in Velious for dragging corpses around in Kael. Why wouldn't they just use a Necro with gather shadows?

[Man0warr]

One of the flags for mobs used to be "See Hide/Sneak" - Evil Eyes for instance had it.

No, it doesn't.

Seems as though people with no experience keep speculating. Please keep it to cold, hard evidence.

"probably"
