"Oooh that little bugger has popped out of that elf wizard's butt and shot me five times!!  No way he's gonna catch me not looking again"........THWUK!!   " Damnit!!!" The acid test for me is this: would players be ok if a monster had the same ability? If a monster got to roll to hide from their passive perception in the same spot round after round and pepper them with bonus damage even though they knew exactly where the monster was, would players be alright with it? Would they feel cheesed off that their characters some of whom might have a super high INT & WIS, keep falling for peekaboo round after round?If they are fine with that, then I say roll with it and let the ridiculous happen. I remember some folks went ballistic over the hobgoblin getting martial advantage, yet had no problem with the rogue getting sneak damage under the exact same circumstances. Always give a monster an even break. Learn it. Love it. Live it.</blockquote>
