[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 7798499, member: 6795602"] Or you just roll one time to see if his action is successful. Stretching out the basic stealth approach scene just isn't interesting unless there's a lot more going on in the scene than what we have currently described. Your the DM. It's your SUBJECTIVE call on what to set the DC at. If getting to the different levels is important and yields interesting and important information or events then by all means break it apart into sections. But the resolution method would still be the same. Set a DC for each level. In this case you aren't setting the DC for an individual orc, you are setting the DC for a specific orc encampment at a specific time. If it' a generic orc encampment in a more or less generic location without any obviously sight enhancing features then maybe the standard easy, medium, hard suffices. If you can do it for social I'm confident u can do it for exploration. [/QUOTE]
