[QUOTE="CajunAzn, post: 5073426, member: 87718"] So I guess your argument is that [I]instantly[/I] after you succeeded your stealth check you would lose your invisibility. Another good point, but I think you aren't taking into account the effect of the stealth check itself. As I alluded to earlier, the stealth check (in this situation) represents your adroitness in sychnronizing your body position and movement with your ally in such a way that the enemy never gets a clear look at you from that angle. So your invisibility wouldn't just "instantly vanish" unless your ally or the enemy shifts position. Even if you were hiding behind a stone wall, this would still be the case. If the wall dissapears, you become visible. If the enemy goes around the wall, you become visible. However, if all conditions remain the same (and the enemy doesn't make an active perception check) it is logical that your stealth check result still applies. However when your turn comes again, the rules clearly state your restrictions: "You can't use a creatures as cover to [I][B]remain[/B][/I] hidden". In other words, you must be continually on the move, positioning yourself cleverly (ie. gaining superior cover) and using your balance/flexibility to remain silent and assume a hidden posture (ie. making stealth checks).
