Couldn't Sneak be abused in a similar way in D:OS 1 to solo the game?
I'm not saying tweaks to Sneak might not be needed, BUT this might be a case of "If you want to spend 4 times as long / 40 minutes to solo kill your way through every encounter - more power to you."
Won't doing the same strategy over and over again - especially one which involves the enemy never being able to hit you - just spoil your own experience and make you burn out on the game fast?

Friendly NPC's don't know that you are friendly. You could be trying to rob them blind (which you usually are.)

I've actually had cases where enemies see maybe a little less than their sight cone. In that encounter with the skeletal pirates just below Lucian's shrine, I've had my Rogue hang back, and later try to edge her past the sneak cones filling all the walkable space. Even though she apparently was right on the edge in places and even briefly stepped over a cone, she wasn't detected.
