[QUOTE="Gardens & Goblins, post: 7405401, member: 6846794"] FLOW CHART! Ok, but before someone shares it: First, have a chat with your DM about stealth. Ask them to give you examples of scenarios where your character could and could not stealth. You at least need to know where they're coming from. To be clear, the PHB stealth rules are very much open to interpretation so its not so much as 'Someone is wrong, someone is right' but rather a matter of ensuring you and your DM share the same, for lack of a better term, 'stealth values'. If, after understanding where your DM is coming from with regards to stealth you believe you cannot adapt or do not want to adapt your play, then you are limited to: - make a different character that doesn't rely on stealth. - play your character in a way that embraces your DM's 'stealth values'. - negotiate a middle ground between you and your DM's 'stealth values'. - find a different DM that shares your 'stealth values'.
