Imagine the scenario below:Rogue  = R Enemy Orc = OPillar = PEmpty sq = XOn the first round this is the setup (with no fog or any other cover or concealment other than the pillar). xxxxxxxppxxxxxxxppxxxxxxxxxOR               On his turn the rogue moves behind the pillar and makes a stealth check at the end of his move (because at the end of his move he has total cover granted by the pillar). He beats the Orcs passive perception so he's considered hidden from the orc. If he didn't have the Fleeting Ghost power he would have taken a -5 penalty to stealth for moving more than 2 squares (-10 if he ran) but he has that power so he doesn't take the penalty. Now its setup like thisxxxxxxxxRxxxxxxxxppxxxxxxxxppxxxxxxxxxxOThe rogue is hidden from the orc who doesn't know where he is. if the Rogue moves out from behind the pillar his stealth automatically ends at the end of his move (and it grants him no benefit to the attack). So instead he's going to use a power that lets him shift two squares and then make a ranged attack. He shifts around the corner and makes the attack and gets combat advantage because the stealth effect doesn't end until the attack that ends the effect is resolved. After the attack he is no longer hidden. If the Rogue opted to do nothing on his turn he could remain hidden. On the Orc's turn he could spend a minor action to roll a Perception check to find the Rogue. Instead he if he could simply walk around the pillar and find the rogue automatically except the Rogue has Chameleon and so can remain hidden in that situation. Is this all right or am I more confused than I think?EDIT: Added X's because the post doesn't recognize spaces apparently. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
