    Title: Justicar sees all?
    Reproduction Rate: Used to be around 70% that the Justicar would show up when I stole something from a town while invis. Now it seems to be around 100%
    Blocker? No
    Details: Correct me if I'm wrong, but Blood Bay is a PvP zone and is not protected by the Oracle, right? But, the "ninja-appear" and "ninja-vanish" Justicar DOES protect Blood Bay? Also, he can see me stealing things while I'm in stealth? (GM move silently). Seems a bit odd to me.
    Steps to Reproduce: Steal something from an NPC town while in stealth. Then pay 125 gold (or more? seems to scale? for each item stolen)

    Justicars are allowed in Blood Bay. The Oracle may take notes when your virtue is tested, but when you steal from people in a town it's the Justicars that get called to deliver justice. And the citizens of Blood Bay pay good tax/bribe money to ensure their items are safe.

    @Applerust I almost reported this as a bug too recently - but then I spoke with a few NPCs for the judge's wig quest - and as part of that dialog, they mention what Sannio said.

    Can you normally steal from NPCs while in stealth

    I have stolen in stealth, from various NPCs towns in the past and not been caught by the justicar. In those same places, while not in stealth, I was caught by the justicar.

    Ah.. maybe try a few more times if you don't mind the virtue hit or gold hit (or hop on the QA server) and see how the %'s match up to what you're expecting.. and report back and tag Sannio

    @Echondas With subterfuge spec, gm silent movement, and 6 stacking the skill, it seemed unreasonable to get caught at all. That's why I thought it was appropriate as a bug report.

    Sounds reasonable - maybe @Chris has some feedback into the behavior of this.
