I was telling you your response reads as if you ignored everything you quoted. Bacon Bits makes a post about how every "make a DC 17 Perception check to find..." could just as easily have been removed from the game, since it is so easy to create a character who automatically makes every DC 17 Perception check using passive Perception. And then he goes on to show how increasing the DC brings other problems. If you quote somebody, you're expected to acknowledge what he wrote. So instead of just parroting off some basic truth about how skill checks work, how about actually addressing his example case and the fact he find this problematic?If your opinion is that you're fine with maybe nine out of ten listed "make a Perception check to find..." in published modules are essentially useless, in sharp contrast to every edition before 5e, please say so. That way, we might not agree, but at least we know you read his post <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
