Message: <blockquote data-quote="Flamestrike" data-source="post: 6934638" data-attributes="member: 6788736">Incidentally imagine how potent a Rogue with greater invisibility is.Every round he gets to [attack] as his action [at advantage with sneak attack] and then [hide] as a bonus action [and move if he wants, both before and after the attack].Coupled with a high Dex and expertise in Stealth [and maybe even the 11th level Rogue ability that lets him treat any dice roll on a skill check of less than 10 as a 10), he's virtually immune to any and all return attacks barring a very lucky guess or a passive perception score of 25+.With elven boots on he also gets advantage on his stealth checks to Hide.You and others kind of want to hand this ability out to anyone who becomes invisible with a 2nd level slot. They become more than just invisible, they become totally imperceptable, and with no Hide action required (or the Hide action being handed out as a free action].In RAW, a Wizard with greater invisiblity needs to use every other action on the Hide action (and still needs to defeat the passive perception score of those he wants to hide from). Then as long as he stays hidden (no one succesfully uses the Search action to find him, and he doesnt otherwise reveal himself with an attack) he can run rampant.As soon as he attacks, he remains invisible (greater invisiblity) but becomes attackable again (at disadvantage) for a single round until he uses another action on his following turn to again Hide. In effect, he opens himself up for a few seconds for an attack in return before he gets the chance to Hide again.If he dipped 2 levels of Rogue for cunning action, he could [attack][hide][move] all on the same turn. Those Rogue levels make him... a lot better at stealth.If you look closely, this is a feature and not a bug.</blockquote>
