    You realise enemies do also have bonuses right.

    I do, and even indicated that, but a +18 is fucking wild. How high are these bonuses? Not saying it isn’t possible it’s just that your story loses some impact without details is all.

      18 **is** wild, so I would assume 16 or 18 wis guards proficient in perception, by level 17 would get +10 without any other kind of modifiers. If they are rogue guards with 14 wisdom they get to +10 by level 4 with expertise. Again, if the DM is handling stuff to get them get to +18 I'd assume he can make guards get +10 too.

            A natural 18 would, without any bonuses, not clear your stealth even if you rolled a nat 1. If you rolled even a 10 that would give them a 28DC perception check to see you.

            I meant 18 on the die plus the NPC's perception bonus.

              Could be something other than D&D. +18 is pretty easily achievable in mid-level Pathfinder 2e.

                This is also sorta how RAW works (in DnD 5e), to quote the PHB: > Group Checks When a number of individuals are trying to accomplish something as a group, the DM might ask for a group ability check. In such a situation, the characters who are skilled at a particular task help cover those who aren't. To make a group ability check, everyone in the group makes the ability check. If at least half the group succeeds, the whole group succeeds. Otherwise, the group fails. Taking the median roughly has the same effect, it only has a chance to differ if the number of successes and the number of failures are tied.

                The 2024 rules specifically clarify that stealth is *not* typically a suitable skill to be rolled in such a way.

                  This is why my group takes the median result on a group check. That 20 should be able to make up for the 1, and the final result is a 17 (rounding down).

                    That's a mean, not a median

                      D&D 5e was already trash. 2024 is stupid. If you choose to use their system, for whatever reason, ignore anything they say that makes for a bad experience. I can't see a good argument why this shouldn't work this way.

                        Follow the Leader in PF2 solves this gracefully as well

                        All D&D groups should at least consider PF2. It's better in almost every way. Any confusing D&D rule/exception is pretty much fixed in PF2. It also isn't owned by WotC/Hasbro, which is a nice bonus.

                          PF2 is only better if you want tactical combat and lots of options to create builds. Sorry to inform you that's it's not what all tables want, so no, "All D&D groups" does not have to consider PF2.
                          It's the case in mine (and we play a lot of differents ttrpgs). PF2 is just too much, and is in the same boat as Shadowrun : ain't nobody got time for that.

                          (also, as 5e is CC-BY now, it is not "own" by anyone (only the D&D brand is), wich is not the case with the ORC licence and Paizo)

                            PF2 is very similar to 5E. Sure, PF1 is too much, but 2 is basically 5e without the need to memorize a shit ton of exceptions because the rules weren't thought out when they were first written. >(also, as 5e is CC-BY now, it is not "own" by anyone (only the D&D brand is), wich is not the case with the ORC licence and Paizo) If you buy an official book or pay a subscription, that money is going to WotC. That's what I mean by own, and that's what everyone means. Sure, you can create content for it legally still. That doesn't not mean they don't own the system.
