[QUOTE="RigaMortus2, post: 5815718, member: 11586"] NPC Thief to PC: There is a secret door in the king's chambers. Go find it, and behind the door is a priceless picture. Bring it to me, and you will be rewarded well. PC goes off and sneaks into the king's chambers when no one is looking, thinks to himself "I know there is a secret door here somewhere, now to find it." There, PC knows there is a secret door, must still try to discover it before king returns to his chambers. How do you determine this? (a) Well, NPC told him it was there, so no need to roll, he just knows where to look and finds it automatically (ie hand waving it) (b) Keep rolling until you find it. If too many rounds go by, you'll be discovered! (ie rolling over and over again) (c) PC is pretty wise, he knows the usual places to look for a secret door, under a rug, behind a curtain, behind the bookshelf. A few minutes go by and you discover the location of the secret door. (ie Wisdom + 10 or Taking 10 is enough to find it without rolling a bunch of times) Which selection speeds up the game? Hint... NOT option (b)... [/QUOTE]
