📋 About This Mod
When attacking from outside an enemy's vision range, the enemy is supposed to roll a Perception Check which serves as the DC for a Stealth-check. However, due to a bug, the raw result of the D20-roll (before bonuses) is almost always the same for the attacker and the enemy. This mod fixes that.
There is also a second bug that I hope to adress in a future update. For more details on this, see this wiki-article: https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Stealth#Stealth_attacks
This mod is safe to install and uninstall from active playthroughs. Requires Norbyte's Script Extender version 30+, PC only.
Note for mod authors: If you are using the RequestActiveRollVersusSkill or RequestPassiveRollVersusSkill Osiris-functions, your mod will also be affected by this behavior. Consider recommending this mod to fix that.
Acknowledgements: Major thanks to Norbyte for the Script Extender, without which so much would not be possible
This mod fixes a broken stealth-check mechanic in combat, ensuring that when attacking while hidden, you no longer always roll the same as the opponent. It requires Script Extender v30+ and is a small, focused fix with 35 endorsements and 21,862 downloads.
