===Ignoring Concealment===
===Ignoring Concealment===
Any creature which possesses a sense that does not require line of sight and can be used for combat targeting (such as blindsense or tremorsense) can ignore the miss chance from Concealment and Total Concealment.
If a creature possesses a sense that can bypass the concealment, such as [[blindsense]] or [[tremorsense]], which do not require line of sight to target creatures in combat, can ignore the effects of that concealment.  In many cases, sources of concealment only apply to visual-based senses, and non-visual-based senses can bypass them.  However, certain effects, such as a silence spell, can create concealment against creatures that use non-visual-based senses as their primary targeting sense.  GMs and players should be aware of these circumstances, and decide whether the effect in question is bypassed by a particular sense, or whether a particular sense is partially or completely blinded by each form of sensory-obscuring effect.
 
Obviously, if a creature's senses are unaffected by the effect that is creating the concealment, that creature does not suffer any issues with its to-hit rolls against the (not-actually-)concealed creature in question.  Its to-hit rolls are resolved normally.
