PC Possible planned 10 Second cooldown on sneak attack damage in 1.0? what? why?

[Scyris]

So I was reading some of the challenges and came across this one in the picture, Why did they feel like a cooldown was needed? stealth is mostly useless in poi's with most spawns knowing where you are once triggered anyway. Yes I am aware of the assassin set bonus, but still, second you pop back out they just going to resee you again. Its never had a cooldown before and I don't think i've ever seen a game have one on this either. Is this just yet another way to nerf stealth/make the game into more of a slog than it already was?

Tested it, seem its not hooked up yet, though I cannot see enemy health bars to confirm. Might be coming though.

i think its a 10s cd per target. Not overall. I have been able to sneak attack 2 different targets in less than 5 seconds.

There will be a pop up if you hit sneak attack against someone.

Are you playing single player?  If so, the cd doesn’t apply

I turned on the health bars, but even then, you can see the bonus applier text. Didn't matter anyway as they were both one-shot kills.

I did not notice a cooldown in effect.

I will also note that this was on multiplayer dedicated server.
