Fox" data-source="post: 4394222" data-attributes="member: 55033">Here's how I handle Stealth - Player elects to Stealth as part of a movement, due to concealment or cover. He or she cannot make a Stealth check if they're in the open, unless they attempt a Bluff check to take the foe's attention away from them as a Standard Action. If they have successfully Bluffed versus the foe's passive Insight, he can then move towards concealment or cover and make a Stealth check as part of their move. If the person remains in Cover/Concealment and has overcome the foe's passive Perception, he is considered stealthed and gains Combat Advantage against his target. If the person moves out of Cover or Concealment, they are immediately discovered - no matter what. This means it's virtually impossible to place a melee Sneak Attack strike, unless they've maneuvored into a place where their foe can be reached within melee distance. They can "pop out" over cover or around cover as long as they don't leave their square to make a Sneak Attack with a ranged power/attack - or alternatively, attack with a ranged power from concealment. On the next round, if the player elects not to move, they are still under Stealth with the previous roll unless Cover or Concealment is somehow broken (light enters the concealed area or the cover is destroyed). If they move while behind cover or concealment from their original square, they MUST reroll Stealth.</blockquote>
