  • The booby trap is not visible to the opponent, but you can clearly see from where it is thrown and where it is placed by the animation. Same for the poison bomb and I assume for bones, water flask, etc. This could be intended so the stealth is not that strong. If that is the case ignore it, but I'm not a big fan of it, because this is a turn-based game and at the same time you can easily miss seeing the start of the animation and thus miss important information that you're supposed to have available.
  • The assassin's position is revealed by himself when summoning an elemental, using one more thing card and maybe many more due to the animation above the character.
  • One can reveal the assassin by summoning an elemental on top of him (and the elemental spawns next to him). This is inconsistent when tried with a behemoth - it is again spawned next to him, but the assassin is not revealed.
  • Oana can scan with master's call although once I wasn't able to hit him and I knew the exact assassin's position. There are probably more such "tools" for scanning. Edit: more lister here - https://resolutiongames.canny.io/demeo/p/hook-reveals-stealth-assassin-other-hitscans
  • Sometimes the assassin's positions is shown as accessible (indistinguishable from empty tile) and he's revealed if you try to move there (which I assume is the intended behavior). However, other times:
-- The position is clearly not accessible (not being able to step on it) so the position becomes obvious when he is in the fog of war (i.e. behind the wall you're that you're going around). This is not an intended reveal of the location, but also prevents you from releaving him by moving on top even if you knew his location or just want to try your luck (unless you spend 2 action points just to reveal him and he can go stealth again on his turn).
-- The position is just out of the movement range (i.e. on the fifth tile), but it is shown as accessible just like when you're able to attack an enemy on the fifth tile when you have 4 movement speed. See screenshot

.
-- The assassin blocks the path which reveals that he's in one of the positions that allows this. Haven't tried this enough to see if it's consistent at all. Not sure if it's intended or not. On one hand, you want the assassin to not be distinguishable, at the same time you don't show just his location as accessible, but also the cells on the other side.
  • The assassin is not allowing you to hit a target from his position even though his position is shown as accessible. This leads to 2 issues:
-- It reveals information about the assassin's location.
-- Can be very frustrating because you end up trying the whole time to get the exact angle while thinking you're just not getting it right (especially for diagonal hits that are sometimes hard to do anyway).
