Attack against Total Concealment


Rules Questions


New guy here searching for an answer to the statement in the "Total Concealment" rule: "... though it can attack into a square it thinks you occupy."

What would be the DC for this attack? Or is the attack against the target's EAC/KAC?

From the CRB:
Total Concealment
If a creature has line of effect to you but not line of sight (see
page 271), you have total concealment. An enemy can’t attack
you when you have total concealment, though it can attack into
a square it thinks you occupy. A successful attack into a square
occupied by an enemy with total concealment has a 50% miss
chance (instead of 20%).

Thanks.


Yep, you're still attacking EAC/KAC. Essentially to hit a creature you don't have line of sight to with an attack, you have to:

  • Determine or guess the correct square to attack
  • Successfully roll high enough on a d100 to beat 50% miss chance
  • Successfully roll high enough on an attack roll to hit EAC/KAC

    Of course, area attacks like grenades (and other things with explode) or explosive blast spells don't suffer that miss chance.

  • Awesome! Thank you for the help!
