[QUOTE="gtoasnt3, post: 4618688, member: 67919"] We recently ran into the "stealth in combat" issue during our last game session. One of the characters has the sneak attack ability, and will go through great lengths to sneak up on any potential enemy. He'll receive one shot at the unwary target with his CA if he wants. Usually, he motions to the other PC's to approach if he isn't sure whether combat is necessary. He'll stay hidden just in case he needs the advantage. Once combat starts, this PC will try to gain CA at any length. Once per encounter, he can use bluff if the PC is adjacent to the target. If he wins, then CA. He tried to use a pillar in the room where combat was taking place and asked if he could hide and then gain CA for the next round. Since the rules state that he couldn't due to the fact that the pillar only provided cover, he now looks for his fellow PC's to help him out. Daze, prone, invisibility (gained by one of the Warlock's Dailies), and flank are a few of his favorites. [/QUOTE]
