Perception is a Wisdom-based Skill. The higher your Wisdom Score, the more likely you will succeed on Perception Checks.

Proficiency

Characters who are proficient in Perception can add their Proficiency Bonus when making Ability checks.

The following classes can choose to select Perception as a proficient skill at Level 1:

The following races are proficient in Perception:

Uses

  • Used to detect hidden containers, mechanisms and Traps.
  • Used to spot hiding creatures.

Passive Perception

Passive Perception is a special form of Perception that allows a creature to detect things in its line of sight without rolling a Skill Check.

Passive Perception is most commonly applied against Stealth checks: when a hidden creature enters another creature's line of sight, the hidden creature rolls a Stealth check against a Difficulty Class (DC) equal to the opposing creature's Passive Perception.

A creature's Passive Perception value is determined by this formula:

Passive Perception = 10 + Wisdom Modifier + Proficiency Bonus (if Proficient in Perception)
