This rule will not come into effect during ambushes - Perception vs Stealth - or when one party would have a reasonable chance to hear, see, etc. the other party - Perception vs DC based on amount of noise, light, etc.
The characters make a Perception check vs the given surprise DC. Those characters that fail are surprised for the first round.
In using this, Passive Perception is not used for encounters. But it is still used when passing by something of interest.
Travel Pace | Surprise DC | Feet in 1 Min |
Cautious | 0 | 100 |
Slow | 5 | 200 |
Moderate | 10 | 300 |
Fast | 15 | 400 |
