These previews are for what's coming whether we like it or not. Player's Handbook II is at the printer already (or already printed) if the pattern of the other releases is still being followed. IIRC other books were sent off fully three months before release, there's only about half that time before PHB II.That being said I'm not sure it's "broken" for a lot of the reasons mentioned here such as the requirement for line of effect. Additionally the "goblin village" scenario doesn't hold much water. Twenty squares is only 100 feet, if I were building a village I don't think I'd leave many hiding places within 100 feet of the village boundaries <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> I can guarantee that no matter the hiding spot he'll be found by the dozens of gobbies fleeing the village if it happened in my game.
