[QUOTE="Astrosicebear, post: 4254404, member: 67017"] First the rogue would need to make a Stealth check vs the targets passive perception. If that passed, he could sneak attack. On the targets turn, not knowing where the rogue was, he can make an active perception check vs the rogues last stealth result. If he fails he still cant see the rogue. The rogue of course still needs to stay within cover/concealment. I would rule in this discussion that the rogue in the situation hiding behind the ally must be one size smaller, and must be directly opposite the target. Any shift in the targets position would reveal the rogue. The rogue would have a few penalties on the stealth check for being in combat and such... so its probably an easy check to make for most combatants... this may play at high paragon/epic levels but not heroic.
