Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sheng Long Gradilla" data-source="post: 1947781" data-attributes="member: 15424">A ranger with HiPS does not need cover or concealment. The ranger's HiPS ability does not state so, but there is another ability, Camouflage (Ex), which is obtained before HiPS, and removes the cover or concealment restriction, so in practical terms the ranger can hide while being observed in natural environments even without cover or concealment...As for the Sniping rules, I will try to explain how I see it.See, a rogue is hidden behind some cover. In order to attack, the rogue has to get partially visible, so the cover does not get in the way of the attack. After the attack, the rogue has to hide again behind that cover fast enough so that the opponent (who now knows the relative location of the rogue) does not see him.I don't really know how to explain it for a rogue concealed in shadows, though. But IMHO, that's basically what the Sniping rules try to simulate.</blockquote>
