What determines whether or not a moon mage or another character can locate a thief when they are hidden? Perhaps Stealth ranks, agility, reflexes, discipline, and whether or not KHRI SKULK is active? Any ideas? Thanks! Also, how much of a boost is KHRI SKULK?

Skulk flat out nullifies locate and familiars.

As for locating without skulk, I know stealth ranks play a large part, but I don't see anything in my notes from over the years indicating what else.

Paraphrased from this thread:
http://www.tinyheroes.com/forums/DragonRealms/The%20Moon%20Mages/General%20Discussions%20-%20Moon%20Mages/thread/1726569

'At no level of stealth skill are you ever immune to locate... (contest is) Perc vs stealth. There's a fairly simple way to get a large bonus to either side of the contest...I'll go ahead and say invisibility is a hefty bonus to the hiding side - I think that's fairly obvious.' - Raesh




As a Moon Mage of middle of the road skill, Khri Skulk and/or Bard Sanctuary are just about the only things that can stop a determined locate outside of the anti-locate rings (which are extraordinarily situational) and rooms warded against clairvoyance. There's probably a combination of anti-magic Barbarian abilities that would accomplish the same but by the point a barbarian can use them all you don't really need to locate them.
