Let me see if I understand this one. Say a rogue sees a good spot to hide, a square with concealment next to a monster he wants to attack. If he is hidden at beginning of his turn, he has displacement (50% miss chance?) as long as he remains hidden. By using concealing terrain, and/or rogue utility powers, he can use a move action to reach his target spot and remain hidden. He can then attack a foe, with combat advantage -since he is still hidden for the attack, but loses his hidden status as an immediate reaction to his attack. He can then use a minor action to hide again in his chosen spot.Assuming he makes that stealth check, he will once again gain displacement. If the foe wants to attack the rogue, he will have to attack the rogue's square (-5 penalty to hit), and also has 50% miss chance (?). However, if he manages to strike the rogue, the rogue is revealed to everyone, until he can take a minor action to hide again.Is this how it works?I am only guessing that displacement means 50% miss chance because that's what it means in 3ed. I haven't come across it before in 4ed.</blockquote>
