Camoflage- The theif spawns a 3x3x2 block on them, matching the block that their standing on for 10s. During this duration,the theif will not take sufacation damage.

The only real problem i see with this is making it to where the users cant destroy the blocks for any type of gain though i think thats been solved with the web skill.

The only thing I don't like about this idea is that for 10 seconds you're not only hidden, but you're protected by the blocks you've created- doing this on obsidian, bedrock or a regioned area would essentially just be giving you 10 seconds of invulnerability. If you could make it possible to hit through these "camo blocks", with a normal weapon instead of having to mine them, I'd say go for it.

I think it would likely be better to modify the ninja's vanish skill to work as "hide" for a thief. 10 seconds of invisibility, but have you rooted in place for the duration.

Yeah, the only ting that may ruin it would be the whole message thing, but i really like the idea of te vanish but rooted in place... :D

I remember Kainzo saying something about removing messages for certain skills (such as sneak), which would be perfect for a situation like that one!

I don't think smoke should have a msg. If I'm trying to be sneaky, raiding a town, I hate it when "GreekCrackShot USED SMOKE!!!!" Pops up on screen for everyone I'm trying to sneak up and kill to see. It just raises unnecessary awareness that can ruin smoke, because then the person is spinning around spamming their sword until I'm hit and I reappear.

Well too you have a 12hp diamond sword and your invisible, we are fucked the second you vanish.

Well fighting a Dreadknight who can wear good armor (like bazola) I get frustrated because I could've sworn I hit baz 15 times when I fought him. Snuck out of the town and hit my smoke bind then repeatedly hit him in the back, I reappeared, then he harmtouched me and I died.

God I hate harmtouch

Haha, as a Samurai dude if I pick the right time to attack I can take them both on. I will however loose all my food and armor in the process but I will beat them!

It's so unfair... one second 7/9 hearts... next second I'm dead. I can't even react, it's just so cheap. If harmtouch was more of a poison skill, that lasted a long time, to EVENTUALLY do the 30 dmg it does, that would be better. At least I have a chance to eat my bread that I made for the occasion of killing the guy.

No it's more of smoke without the time limit and no movement. if there was a skill like this and ninjas didn't have one so similar to it, it would go to ninja, it's as simple as that.

Yah I forgot that part, I cant think of a good time limit. 30 seconds 1 minute?

more like 10-20 secs.
