How to Detect Stealth in a "WoW" Exploit
Imagine you are running through the jungles of Stranglethorn Vale in World of Warcraft. A stealth panther appears and hits you, causing you to fall off your riding mount. Now you have to fight the panther to continue on your path. Being able to detect stealth opponents helps players avoid these types of situations. Another area in World of Warcraft that players encounter problems with stealth is player versus player. Rogues and Feral Druids sneak up on players, incapacitating them from fighting back.

Observe the surrounding area. As a stealth opponent draws closer, you can see them. The player or enemy looks somewhat transparent. How clear a stealth being appears depends on how close your level is to theirs. For example, a level 76 Rogue won't appear easily to a level 70 Hunter.

Perform an Area of Effect move. Area of Effect moves, known as AOEs, break the stealth spell on players and enemies. Arcane Explosion, Frost Nova, Blood Boil and Hurricane are some of the Area of Effect moves that break stealth. The moves players can do vary from class to class. The players spec in their class also affects the available moves. You can see your moves by clicking on the skills tab (the book icon on the toolbar). For example, if a Mage and Shaman approach the flag in the Eye of the Storm battleground, the Mage can perform the Blizzard spell over the flag to break the stealth of any oncoming players while the Shaman takes the flag.

Set a spell or trap to break stealth. Immolation traps and Ring of Frost, for example, breaks the stealth of any player you come in contact with. The spells function similar to AOE spells. Hunters can also shoot a revealing shot to detect stealth players. This skill of Hunters is particularly useful when they guard a flag in player versus player. Another time when these types of skill aid in play is when a Mage casts a Ring of Frost in a doorway or path during a raid to stop and expose stealth enemies.
