Camouflage

There has been a lot of buzz going around about the new 85 skill Camouflage. This skill is actually not to be confused with stealth. You can still be targeted while in camo, but they simply can't attack you. You aren't affected by AoE from any source, nor can dispel or mass dispel break you. Though I have read in numerous places that you are supposed to be affected by AoE and melee abilities, so whether this is currently a bug on beta servers we will have to wait and find out.

Now, how useful will this ability actually be. People believe camo is going to be over powered because of it's ability to prevent any spells from being cast on you, but! It has a 1 minute timer, it can't be cast in combat, and unless your standing completely still, enemies can target you. Camouflage does have its benefits for hunter in PvP. You can still cast trap launcher, traps, aspects, and defense spells like deterrence. You can also tip toe around mobs while leveling or running through content.

Well, I believe this video says all that needs to be said about camouflage. I would like to thank Frostheim for this amazing video.
