When outside of combat,  how does stealth work without cover? How does stealth work in these situations:Invisible rogue,  sneaking past guards when he walks into an antimagic zone. Is he immediately revealed,  or is he allowed a stealth check? What if it's at night? During a bright day, a rogue tries to hide on a roof to wait for certain targets to pass by in the street below.  Can he hide on the edge so he can see down,  or does he have to break like of sight completely so he can't see the road in order to stealth?I have a feeling my GM was ruling stealth a bit incorrectly,  but wanted to check. I enjoy playing stealth characters but my GM said I'm not very good at them.  What happened in those cases was no stealth allowed, guards were instantly alerted. And in the ambush situation,  I had to move to the center of the roof so I had total concealment and wait for the party to signal me that it was time to strike. But I see elsewhere that stealth is apparently different in and out of combat,  so I need ruling help.</blockquote>
