Ya know, the more I think about it, the more I like Blind Fighting Style in Tashas. For a fighter, even at 10', blindsense has a number of ways of proving worthy. Great video Fred!
Thanks Wally.
This video was super helpful, thank you! I want to put a monster with an ability to turn invisable in my current campaign but i wasnt sure exactly how to rule it until i saw this
You are most welcome 😀
Hey Fred, great video! I agree that invisibility is probably one of the most varied rules in the game by DM discretion.
Going by the book (5e PHB), I disagree with you on how Hide and Search work with invisibility (00:02:22) so I want to see if I have it right.
Normally, an invisible creature is considered heavily obscured for the sake of hiding, but they must use the Hide action to make their presence and location unknown (being seen and having location known are not the same). This means casting Invisibility will still require the invisible creature to take the Hide action to completely stump enemies as to its location, and it must beat their Passive Perceptions with its Stealth check. Doing so will force enemies to use the Search action to figure out the invisible creature's location as they attempt to roll higher than their Passive Perception scores. They still can't *see* the invisible creature, so the invisible creature is still an unseen attacker and is heavily obscured, but the invisible creature's location is discovered by those passing the skill contest (Stealth vs Perception/Investigation).
This is one reason Arcane Tricksters are great; they can become invisible with a spell and use the Hide action as a bonus action on the same turn (assuming they are willing to stay put or move half speed).
Anyone see a hole in my analysis per the PHB rules? I want to get this right. 😃
Thanks Jordan. I will not explain the complexity of this in a comments section. We can disagree. Just ask me in person, when you see me next.
@@HowtoRPG You got it!
@@FlutesLoot lol
Really great stuff here Fred. Very well researched: you should put this together as a document for reference.
Thanks Kevin. I have, but it's only available to patrons on Patreon. There has to be some benefits to supporting me with money :)
@@HowtoRPGI'm beginning to understand the Patreon concept!
so I am starting a game as an artificer and this makes my gears grind with excitement because it is a challenge. So depending on the DM, I would say like a grenade or smoke bomb. Now if according to the DMG under fragmentation grenade is correct it had a 20-foot radius. That's a big area. So take that and somehow encase it in a breakable but sturdy case with a layer of flour or if it is allowed like glowing dust that is like faerie fire but the nonmagical version. That is an idea that I was thinking of when you said flour.
A flour bomb is what your suggesting, I think? That might work better than a bag of Flour. There is also the risk of an explosion if a flame ignites the floating flour dust.
@@HowtoRPG that is true but if you are trying to find an invisible npc then that is a good way to clear the area pretty well. If I can make glowing dust or glowing paint or ink that would be a little more useful!
@@LunarFoxfyre Very hard to do. Requires a lot of Dungeon Master approval.
@@HowtoRPG true but isn't that the fun of d&d trying to see if the what if can be achieved or not?
@@HowtoRPG that is true but it is a good idea I mean my DM is allowing science into the game which I mean I have some pretty interesting ideas.
The images which accompany your explanation are evocative. Hear! Hear!
Thank you :)
a bag of flour and gust of wind spell. I use that as a PC in my a2e campaign at the moment. My DM hates me for it 🤣.
lol
Many great suggestions. I have had players use the bag of flour to find an invisible stalker
This sounds like a class at adventurers guild. Now I'm thinking about an adventurer teacher NPC.
Detect magic doesn't work on invis because auras only show if it is visible. For the same reason, detect magic can't see through a Disguise Self spell if you have one of those proof against detection and location amulets, so anything you magically obscure with the Disguise Self won't show an aura because it isn't visible (unless you investigate the Disguise illusion or have true seeing through a non divination magic mechanism)
I had considered other illusion spells, but placed it in the to hard to explain basket when it was pointed out.
And I liked the bat familiar!
Thanks Kevin. It was actually someone else’s idea.
thank you!
You are always welcome :)
Good video
Yes it’s geared for the players to win
Do the heroes or villains have invisibility powers on the new Movie Dungeons and Dragons that’s coming next month in 2023?
No idea.
