Changing this back would probably make many ppl unhappy, so what i could imagine is a further specialization for using stealth, i.e. adding HCK as a requirement, so the stealther char would have less SP in other DEX subskills. Making the blue cloud targetable beyond AoE (as it is now), like b proposes, would render the stealth tool nearly useless.
