I have a question about the ability Gloom Stalkers acquire when they declare their subclass at third level:
You are also adept at evading creatures that rely on darkvision. While in darkness, you are invisible to any creature that relies on darkvision to see you in that darkness.
Is the ranger invisible as long as they're in darkness, regardless of whether they cast a spell or attack? I'm asking because the spell that grants invisibility has this condition:
The spell ends for a target that attacks or casts a spell.
Am I reading the text correctly in understanding these contingencies do NOT affect the Gloom Stalker's invisibility?
Yes, foes can use sound and scent to perceive them, but their visual invisibility is NOT stopped by movement, spellcasting, or attacks - correct? (Or just produce a light source, of course.)
It effectively makes all enemies lose darkvision against you. One could just ask: whould the creature see me if it didnt have darkvision? If yes, you are visible as normal. If no you are invisible.

You are reading it correctly, the spell/attack limitation is only for the spell Invisibility and anything that duplicates the effects of the spell.
Excellent. Thank you.
It grants invisible the condition not invisibility the spell.
Basically the effect is to make you totally obscured in darkness regardless of darkvision.
