[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 3439499, member: 2525"] So is it your contention, along with Frank, that you can only remain hidden while under some form of cover. That you cannot seek cover, hide, and then move out of cover and make a hide check to remain hidden? For me, that makes hide nearly useless as a skill. How often is there a situation where you not only have full cover or concealment so you can begin the hide (you cannot start it with partial cover or concealment because they you would still be "observed"), but sufficient cover or concealment to stretch the entire distance you want to move once you are already hidden? In other words, what would the circumstances have to be to be able to hide and then get a sneak attack on someone if that target is not standing in an area that already provides cover or concealment? It sure sounds like you guys both think you cannot sneak up behind someone in this game if that person is not already standing in the shadows... [/QUOTE]
