Enemies getting a free "Detecting Presence" is a load of bull****

[Retr0_Static]

Seriously, they can cast this at will when you are invisible as a free action? Where is this for the player?
I can't remember this being a thing in the TTRPG or the older games either

Yeah, but they always just run to where you were last seen and do it, so as long as you move after becoming invisible you're fine.

I hated it too but then you have to remember that it's just them rolling a perception check - it's not a spell that straight up reveals you, it's just a long-winded way Larian decided to handle the NPC rolling a dice to see if they detect you or not.

Don't worry about it, although it rapidly goes from amusing to annoying as the NPC looks around like "WHO SAID THAT? WHO THE F*CK SAID THAT!!!?" to something you have to put up with every time an NPC looks for your invisible / concealed character, lol.

But yeah it's not actually some magical ability to see through invisibility, don't worry.

and at least so far it seems like it's a pretty low DC every time they do it, so I guess unless you are really unlucky it usually won't even factor into combat anyway. Still annoying when it does happen however. Was about to solo wipe an entire encounter with an assassin character with the dark urge invis cloak, then I rolled a one ending that run. Had to bring the rest of the crew over for the fight after that
