Just a reminder, Nerjin, but Quick Reconnoiter let's me do a Spot and a Listen check once per round as a free action.  While I'd like to say I'd be doing it at all times, I most certainly would if I know I'm being observed by anyone.

Just ensuring that I am getting those free checks.  After all, there's no evidence of said checks in the updates.

Personally, Nerjin, to prevent the power-gamey aspect of it (I AUTODETECT EVERYTHING BY FORCING OPPOSED CHECKS EVERY 6 SECONDS), I'd make it so it's just every minute, out of combat situations.

It's meant to be used so you can do it without stopping whatever else you're doing, rather than an auto-win feature for sentry duty.

It's not an opposed check every 6 seconds.  The person doing the hiding sets the DC on their initial Hide action, and I'm trying to beat that DC with my checks.  If I can't beat the DC on a natural 20, it doesn't matter how often I use it.  You also automatically get an opposed check for free every time the target does something new anyway.  So if I'm being followed, I get a free check every couple of rounds; if someone's trying to sneak closer to me, I get a free check every 6 seconds (as they have to roll a new Hide check every action if they're trying to get closer to me).  I can also do a Spot or Listen check every round as a move action already, the only real thing the feat does in that regard is drop the action required.

Oh... Is that what this is about? Yeah, well then there's a reason you didn't get rolls.

No, but you can order them to just stand around.

Whew. Managed to get my hands on the books I was pulling material from.
It seems I was correct, at least, that my feline transformation is at will and not X/day. It is, however, a standard action. I'll make a note of that.

That was handled masterfully.

I can probably post daily now, albeit at night.

So Bill/Second Galia is suggesting you put the gnome right back where you found him? That's amusing.

I can't comment on that IC.

I, too, was amused by that little turn of events.
