Does the Celerity +Stealth IO stack with Shadowfall / Steamy Mist?

It always did, but as of Page 5 a +stealth IO will only stack with the highest source of stealth on most ATs.  Meaning that you can no longer stack stealth from Shadowfall/Steamy Mist/Arctic Fog, Super Speed, and a +stealth IO.

 

So it's not that the Stealth IO didn't stack with the various powers, it's that the various powers don't stack with each OTHER?

Incorrect. Shadow Fall, Steamy Mist and other stealth powers (i.e., Stealth, Super Speed) don't stack with each other, but they all stack with +Stealth IOs. Shadow Fall/Steamy Mist plus a Celerity +Stealth IO will give you invisibility to all but snipers and drones.

... That's what I said?

Removing the stacking of +stealth powers was a silly change made against how the game worked for eighteen years prior, all in a futile attempt to curb advanced mode speed running.  All that happened is that advanced mode speed running teams started demanding that people start taking Stealth (the power), and/or a tier 4 Incandescent Radial Destiny which does stack +stealth.  But I digress.

Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?
