[QUOTE="IceBear, post: 84462, member: 1118"] Yes, in regular combat I can see what you mean. But, an invisbile character sneaks up behind you as you are walking down the dungeon corridor, and then just as you are yawning and scratching yourself in boredom :D he strikes - taking you completely unaware. That should also be allowed a critical as it's almost identical to ignoring someone. I think I'm not going to house rule anything but fallback on good old common sense and use DM licence when someone could ignore someone else. For the most part, no you can't ignore someone, but if, in the case given above, a weasel was used to flank a dragon or ogre I'd allow the dragon or ogre to ignore the weasel (though I'd probably have them stomp it flat if it should hit them), but I wouldn't allow a 20th level fighter to ignore a peasant (just because I can see the peasant distracting the fighter too easily for the fighter to be able to ignore him).
