[QUOTE="FieserMoep, post: 7292325, member: 6919650"] On our table you do not just call "stealth" and roll for it. We describe actions like "I want to dash from rock to rock" and the DM then makes us roll the Stealth Check. Against Tremorsense that would fail yet learning that you can otherwise sneak as in walking very slow, silent and controlling stuff like your heartbeat can work is part of the progression and the PCs learning intel on their foes. Stuff like Nature Checks etc. can tell them before so those are always useful to have. It is easier to hunt prey you know than to hunt prey you have no idea about. You could argue that stealth is just stealth and always works the same way, yet we like to have it vary and thus be may suck when we lack Intel yet we also can tremendously improve out odds if we actually gather some information. 5e leaves quite a lot of stuff up to debate that can not be answered with RAW set in stone so go with the stuff you prefer and like - just make it clear from Session 1.
