(Edit: and video games, for that matter. Thinking about it from a video game perspective, actually, your theory that your attack would go off is totally crazy to me. Much more so than when I wasn't thinking in that perspective. One guy reveals himself only when he attacks, another is waiting for that... you'd have to time travel to interrupt that)DC 50, so not really. I mean, sure, with a spell they could, but in real life someone with a device could do the same. And honestly I'd hope that, say, Hercules could, if we're just comparing demigods now.I play with three groups of players. One has 4 people in it, one about a dozen, and the other a few dozen. In all three groups people do that. In the first, they don't do any internet stuff. I mean, they barely level their characters and I have to remind a couple they have non-at-will attack powers. Serious beer and pretzel type stuff. The second group is a mix of completely casuals who are just playing cause it's what the group is doing and hardcore tacticians. It's entirely possible the former picked up doing it because of the latter, but it's not so hard a concept for a rogue to go 'I want to sneak attack. Hmm, the fighter could give me flank, can I ready for that?'It's quite common in the last group, which is just a massive pool of players who meet at a gaming store where 3-4 tables are run every week. Again, maybe some figured it out and spread it to others, but... is that abnormal?Indeed, like many of my friends.Haven't heard any complaints about it from my strictly recreational group, actually. They asked how it worked, were told, and went merrily on their way.Though one of them is _still_ baffled by the whole combat challenge thing on her fighter, I'll admit <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" /></blockquote>
