Let your D&D players use Charisma (Stealth) checks to blend into a crowd like in Assassin's Creed. — Justice Ramin Arman ➡️ PAX Unplugged (@justicearman) October 16, 2021 I feel like that would be a performance check, surely. You could use that, too! — Justice Ramin Arman ➡️ PAX Unplugged (@justicearman) October 16, 2021 This […]
Let your D&D players use Charisma (Stealth) checks to blend into a crowd like in Assassin’s Creed. One of my favorite ability score shuffles. That and Charisma (Investigation) for gathering information. — Dan Dillon (@Dan_Dillon_1) October 16, 2021 I’ve always been a fan of Strength (Intimidation) checks too – great because a lot of times […]

Anyone? #DnD If it can see you clearly, you can't hide from it. — Dan Dillon 👥 (@Dan_Dillon_1) January 28, […]
Analyzing the yeth hound makes me wonder: The description of pass without trace says it creates “a veil of shadows and silence” that boosts Stealth checks. Clearly it dampens sight and sound, but what about smell? Also, is a yeth hound's Keen Hearing and Smell trait considered a "magical means" of tracking, or does that […]
It took me a long time to undertsand what you meant by the clarification for Stealth and Surprise. I think that the following statement could be used to help players understand by adding one word to the PHB "Otherwise, the DM compares the (*lowest) Dexterity (Stealth) checks of anyone hiding with the passive Wisdom (Perception) […]
Stolen from @Scratticus_ I want to talk about group stealth rules which I use for this very problem. A thread. So as a serial paladin Player I’m usually the one that lets down the party with the stealth. Sometimes it’s just not possible to hang back. pic.twitter.com/oOZNclcE2I — Divine Smite Leo 🛡 (@GlossandGadgets) May 5, […]
