[QUOTE="Warmaster Horus, post: 6590449, member: 6785438"] One thing we can all agree on is that the Hiding sidebar in the PHB needs a re-work. Based on my interpretation of the rule, and the way I run it at my table, a character needs to be out of sight (or invisible or have a special case apply) to attempt to Hide (Stealth check). Once that's done they need to stay obscured in some way - lurking in reasonable cover at a reasonable rate of speed - to retain their Hiding status. This means they are not spotted by opponents who's Perception checks don't meet the character's Stealth check's DC. Stepping out of reasonable cover automatically breaks their Hiding status unless there's a special reason for it not to. This is obviously an interpretation of the Hiding sidebar, but it seems RAI. I'll now stand back and let the RA(poorly)W crowd come in and pick my process apart. [/QUOTE]
