[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8377137, member: 7032025"] They apply "until you are discovered" as per the standard hiding rules. Three examples: [LIST] [*]You are hiding behind a pillar, the target is 30 feet away, does not know that you are there. So if you peek around or even pop out to shoot an arrow, he will not get enough warning and you have advantage. [*]You are hiding behind a pillar, the target is 10 feet away and knows that you are there because he saw you dart there and there is nowhere else to hide. So he is watching the pillar. As soon as you peek out even before attacking, he sees you, there is no reason to have advantage on your attack. [*]You are hiding in a large buch which completely obscures you, but you can see outside because you are close to the edge. You can see your target but he can't see you, and you do not even need to pop out to attack. Even he is watching the bush, he has no idea where the arrow will come from and you have advantage. [/LIST] All these cases are supported right out of the book, completely RAW. After that, all the decisions of the protagonists matters, who is watching what, how, what they are doing about it, and the DM adjudicates like for any situation in the game. [/QUOTE]
