A creature is considered to be Obscured while located in a Lightly Obscured or Heavily Obscured area. Obscured creatures gain the conditions Lightly Obscured Lightly Obscured or Heavily Obscured Heavily Obscured.

A wide variety of Equipment can bestow specific benefits on the player when they are in an Obscured state. Unless specified otherwise, a creature does not need to be Hiding Hiding to gain these bonuses, as long as the area they are standing in is Lightly or Heavily Obscured. If an item states that the user or target must be obscured without specifying Lightly Obscured or Heavily Obscured, both types of obscurement will fulfill this requirement.
