[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 8376877, member: 6779196"] As [USER=6702445]@jayoungr[/USER] observes, my understanding was that we were quibbling over when “popping out” to attack from a hidden position causes the attacker to be spotted - do you get advantage on the attack and then get spotted after it hits or misses (or just after it hits if you have Skulker)? Or do you get spotted immediately and lose the benefits of being hidden before you can even make the attack? I believe the former is RAW. Also, I got the impression that some folks were saying they rule that you can’t hide in an obvious spot (such as behind a lone pillar or a Medium sized ally if you’re a lightfoot halfling), or else that doing so only works once and thereafter you can’t hide in the same spot. 🤘 [/QUOTE]
