Is Climb Any GoodFollow

Is Stealth 25, specifically the Climb ability still good.

It seems that the knocking holes in the walls is so easy now that Climb becomes useless. I have only played in the battlegrounds but assume the ability to breach walls in the frontier are just as easy.

I was pushing my stealth to be able to climb walls by level 25 since few if any stealthers do this. I figure no one would be expecting anyone being able to climb into a keep that early and would provide a good surprise.

With raising stealth and getting climb you'll be able to sneak into keeps and pick people off.
===========================================
This is what I thought except it seems way too easy to knock holes in the walls of the keeps in the battlegrounds. Seems this makes climb less useful. Oh well. I am glad it have it anyway.

off-topic. If I am Level 25 and have Stealth 25+6, is the additional +6 useless or does it have some effect ie. faster movement, larger stealth bubble, easier to see other stealthers.

There are specific climb points on keeps that you can use. You will still be able to get in even if there are holes in the wall on a keep.

The Mastery of Stalth RA helps Archers detect other stealthers, but it does not help assassins detect other assassins. Quote from the Herald:

Modifies stealth detection and stealth movement. Camouflage counters the Mastery of Stealth bonus, allowing an archer to only be seen at the normal range. Doesn't affect detect hidden classes when they are detecting other detect hidden classes. (Meaning it has no affect on assassins detecting assassins.)
