    Stealth goes into section 13.
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!

    You don't think stealth stands out much?

    Want another flame thread?

    In essence it is scrolls via library. As long as i do not go to library i do not care about it much.

    It does help in some situations but normally these not so common. It hurts in some situations but these are rare.

    A lot of players undervalue stealth. Even I thought it was crap
    until I started playing Crawl. In that game it is obvious how
    good stealth is, and it made me appreciate it more in ADOM.
    I can think of several situations where having the skill would
    have saved my life. Granted, with TP CTRL and wand, it isn't
    so useful, but up until then, steps/spaces count, and stealth
    will give you extra.
    "Whip me!" pleads the adom player. The rng replies... "No."

    I was actually just making a pun (stealth doesn't stand out, ho ho). Stealth is very situationally useful, but not that good in a game where most things can be killed or avoided easily enough. I find it very handy it speedruns just so I don't have to bother with monsters (and 'cause it helps escape a DarkForge raid a little easier). Otherwise it's only good very early game or for backstabbing.
