Fleet of foot and charging around obstacles


Rules Questions


In a combat if you have the feat fleet of foot, which allows up to a 90 degree turn during a charge, would you charge an opponent that is around a corner that you cannot see.

example. Your party is in a large room and you get attacked. You are near a hallway that enters into the room, but can't see into the hallway. Arrows have been coming from the hallway attacking your party, so you know the archer is an enemy. is it permissible to charge the archer using fleet of foot without seeing the archer at the beginning of your turn.


Fleet of Foot allows you to break only one of the many "Charge" rules: you can make a direction change while charging. However, there are other rules that apply to charging, such as this one, which would prevent you from charging in the situation you describe:

If you don't have line of sight to the opponent at the start of your turn, you can't charge that opponent.
