[QUOTE="uzirath, post: 7873763, member: 8495"] I've always enjoyed Rope Trick, both as a player and DM. Yeah, this is harder. I have always assumed that the window is visible to some sorts of divination magic. In the typical scenarios where I've seen it used, however, it wasn't logical that the opposition would be looking for it, so it hasn't come up. As player and DM, this scenario is much more common. I've had groups retreat into it when they were feeling overwhelmed. I've also had groups use it without realizing that they were being observed. One of the most common responses is to have something ready to attack from above when people come out. (I've always assumed that the window looks down, so you can't see anything above it.) Could be ranged attacks from a cliff or high balcony (both situations have happened) or flying creatures. I haven't thought much about trying to attack into the space, but that could be interesting. The Bag of Holding idea is fun, but would require a caster who is willing to both sacrifice a valuable magic item and potentially let themselves be sucked into the astral plane.
