But, he still has to be in concealment or cover in order to hide. Create all of the distractions he wants, he cannot hide without cover or concealment.If one was hiding in the concealment of a Fog Cloud and the duration of the Fog Cloud expired, that character would suddenly be out in the open without concealment (assuming normal lighting conditions), would be exposed, and could not hide (shy of HiPS or Invisibility or something).Since True Seeing sees through normal darkness, even the concealment of normal shadowy illumination is not enough to grant concealment against True Seeing.This, of course, does not apply to someone with non-darkness concealment (e.g. fog or branches) who is also using HiPS. Such a character would have concealment against the True Seeing and would still be hiding. He is not using HiPS in this case, just normal hiding. But assuming the character is out in the open, the moment True Seeing is cast is the moment that HiPS and hiding goes away.</blockquote>
