Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ginnel" data-source="post: 4271714" data-attributes="member: 66058">surely we introduce common sense to this ploy.The Warlock has not infact vanished from view he is in granted concealment which in the PHB is given an example as seeing someone in heavy snow or heavy rain, smoke, fog or foliage, which is lightly obscured squares(or if your standing right next to someone, heavy fog, heavy smoke or heavy foliage) But unlike proper concealment granted by a terrain effect this is granted to the warlock by a power which as far as I can tell only effects the warlocks square not any of the surrounding ones so anyone can tell where about he is just not exactly where he is so it makes striking him a bit harder.Ok so now we have that explained you expect me to believe in the warlocks personalised square of hmm heavy foiliage or thick black smoke of even heavy snow he can hide? turn himself invisible to avoid notice? when in fact he is right there because of his obvious magical effect, nuh huh not gonna happen the only way this could work is if the warlock in question moved to an area which provided concealment.I think this works as a nice explanation. In short the warlocks magical concealment absolutely identifies where he is to the enemies (in a designated 5ft square) it just makes pinpointing him for attacks that little bit harder hence the -2 to hit, the only way I can see this argued is that its a dark like effect and it would work at night, but then darkness gives you concealment anyway so it would be fine.Hope this makes sense</blockquote>
