I visited Unrest last week and had no problems using Clouding
to sneak past undead. I explored a good portion of the
basement using it, then I spent a good 3-4 hours pulling from
the basement using the song to scout ahead before pulling. The
song most definitely still works against undead - I would con
them and they'd be in different to me.

Like I said, sometimes the hags cast see invisible on
themselves and other mobs. Or if you end up with a buggy mob
aggressive to you (which shouldn't happen anymore with the
teleporting mob fix they put in), it and anything it alerts
will remain aggressive to you even if you're invisible.
Another possibility is that they changed the song so that the
invisibility to undead effect does not kick in until you reach
a higher level. I'll have to as a bard friend that just got
the song to test it for me.
