Eyebite, Shadow walk & Stealth Forked Thread: Help requested with an Eldarin Feylock

Forked from: Help requested with an Eldarin Fey Pact Warlock

How long does the concealment from Shadow Walk last? Can you move after using Eyebite and use the Stealth skill to stay hidden through your next turn? Or does that go away at the start of your next turn, too?

Oh, I'm not 100%, as I'm not in front of my books, but I think that the shadow walk concealment lasts until the end of your turn.

If it does, I guess you'd have to make a -5 Stealth check to maintain stealth, and hence CA?

The invisibility from eyebite ends at the begining of your next turn. If you moved 3 or more squares befor or after attacking with it; you would just have the shadow walk concealment at the begining of your next turn.

As I understand it, the following chain of events is possible:

1) Eyebite.
2) While invisible (total concealment) you may Hide (roll stealth and compare to passive Perception of the foe hit by Eyebite).
3) Move 3 squares or more, thus invoking Shadow Walk. This doesn't immediately change anything since you're invisible...but see below.
4) The following turn you become visible, but are still Shadow Walking. Assuming you do nothing to break stealth, you are still hidden (total concealment needed to hide, but normal concealment sufficient to maintain stealth).
5) If you do not move 3 squares or more, or take cover or concealment in the terrain, you will become visible at the end of your turn. If you do, you remain hidden unless something breaks stealth.

Note that Eyebite only turns you invisible against one foe. This means that you'd only be hidden from that one foe using this technique. The others would have seen you before shadow walk kicked in, and thus could still know where you were...though you'd still have concealment against them as long as you kept it up.

The only downside to it that I can really think of though is if you move more than 2 squares when stealthed you suffer a -5 to your stealth roll.
