The game will not take an average of the two abilites, but :

- Hide in shadows determines your ability to hide
- move silently determines if you stay cloaked in the next round

I learnt this tidbit from the BlackIsle Forums, maybe it is wrong, maybe it is not, but it is widely accepted over there that the game takes the average of the 2 abilities when calculating your chance to go Stealth. It is written in the code, unless ToB or a patch changed it.

- yes. you have to stand behind your opponent to do backstab-damage

At last! Common ground! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

(Assassin is one of my favorites too, try short bow + poison = fun )

Oh, Assassin is fun alright, I am currently soloing one on Insane.
