[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 4275039, member: 5143"] Yeah, but there is a difference between "I am alert" and "I am specifically looking to see something in this particular area." When I am driving, I am alert to things around me since I don't want to be in an accident and it could be dangerous if I miss something. Although, if I pass a 7-11, I might not notice it was there, since I wasn't looking for it. It got lost in the large number of buildings I passed. If I was specifically looking for the 7-11, because that was my destination, I'm more likely to find it. Same things with adventurers, while walking down a corridor, they might be on the alert for monsters hidden in the darkness, but their primary goal is likely to get to the end of the hallway to a specific door. They are slightly less wary about other things because of it. If someone specifically says "I'm looking for monsters right now" then give them a roll. [/QUOTE]
