So my question still remains do they intend on adding that in game at some point or was it just a JT that got dropped in development.

Are you trying to say, "there was enhance movement speed on English, so will they bring it back"? It's possible but we don't know. However, no other version of the Shadowstalker (French, German, and Japanese) had that in their description of the skill. So we're just assuming it's a mistake in the description.

I play in the Japanese version and it always said, "increases surprise attack's potency from 300 to 500". It never once said that hide's speed was decreased. So it leads me to believe, since Japanese is the original language of the game, that it was 100% mistake on the translation team for English.

What im saying is Shadowstalker which was in english vers which was really enhance sneak attack was a JT they had thought up but either got cut or is ment for a later date. I understand it didnt function as the description it gave and was just enhace sneak attack.So what i want to know from devs is wether the JT shadowstalker which we werent suppose to see is a JT that will get later on, or one that was just cut from the job.

Who are you referring to with "They". Because for me it looks like the people that had come up with that wrong description is the translation group and accidentally put it in the game. Which means the people who designs the skills never came up with something as useless as higher movement speed while hidden.

But I can be wrong and they had originally designed that trait, and after a while they realised how useless that would be and decided to re-design it. But then they forgot to inform the translation group about that change and they had already translated that trait and thus no-one noticed that mistake.

But either way, I myself would rather see some more useful traits than that one, when the level cap rises and new skills and traits comes to play, cause I see no useful applications for that skill yet.

It wasnt a translation error it was a oops we put a completly different JT th ere. Jesus easy concept to understand. They=whoever there programmers are.Translation error is just a blanket term to cover up the mistake. I find it hard to believe they botched the name and the description.

There's no way to know if they intended to have that as another job trait. There has been no information pertaining to that. The only thing said was it was a mistake.

As there several such mistakes (Mug, Shadowstalker and Dancing Edge, last one still not fixed in english) - it leads me to believe that originally concept for Ninja was slightly different and it was changed during "beta-test" but some artefacts left in english version.
Shadowstalker even had completely different icon that it have no in english version
