[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7789488, member: 23751"] No actively searching is not taking no action. While walking the party is actively look at the walls as they walk by and checking for possible secret doors as they do so. It's just not an active wall search. "Such a check can represent the average result for a task done repeatedly, such as searching for secret doors over and over again." That general awareness, per the Passive Checks section of the PHB, either represents a task done repeatedly(action) or an opposed check made secretly. Yes there is. Its an action that the party automatically does repeatedly, but because of the quick movement, suffers a penalty. The bolded part is an action on the part of the party, so no you haven't demonstrated your point. Most are not opposed rolls made secretly, so while there is no specific action specified, they do represent actions done over and over and over. A few are, yes. Most are not of that type and represent actions on the part of the party. [/QUOTE]
