D&D 5E EB's Storm King's Thunder - OOC (FULL)

[EarlyBird]

Sorry bout that, think of it as rushing head-long and then after the excitement you settle down and get a look around.

 

[jmucchiello]

That's why I'm having Darian look around before heading back to the center.

 

[EarlyBird]

Got'cha.

...With a dash, a dash, and a bonus dash, using stealth, that's still 45 feet.

I'm not your DM, and there's tons of argument on the subject, but AFIK, that's not quite how stealth works in 5e. From what I gather, you only move slower with Stealth when you're doing overland travel (and usually 2/3 of normal speed, IIRC). In combat rounds, you move to a place where you're unseen (so out of line-of-sight) at normal speed, then you use the Hide action (or Hide as a bonus action if you've got cunning action).

My point is... if you Move-Dash-Hide with a 30-foot speed, you should be able to go 60 feet.

Sorry if I butted in.

I could easily have versionitis.

Only "half speed stealth" in 5e is when traveling stealhily over Great distance & the Thief Steak to gain advantage on it.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Thief Steak? Sounds yummy.

 

[tglassy]

Is that like in Breath of the Wild, where you can eat certain foods and it’ll give you bonuses to stealth or whatever?

 

[FitzTheRuke]

No, it's what my dragon cooks for himself using your rogue.

 

[EarlyBird]

To keep your stealth, you need to move at 1/2 speed. So you are correct FitzTheRuke you could move, dash, then cunning action hide, but after that you would be traveling at 1/2 speed to keep your stealth up.

I think you'll need to clarify if your character moves then hides or tries to approach stealthily. In pbp communication is key.

BTW: Darian is stlll in melee range from where he is. 30' move, 30' dash (bonus action), and attack.
