Allowing people with Listen to Hear people with Invisibility active

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:
- implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
- the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
- the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to tweak X class.

Allowing people with Listen to Hear people with Invisibility active

As the title suggests... why are people who are invisible, also apparently silenced, even though they're running all about the place, sometimes in full plate and the like, yet nobody is able to hear them, or detect them, as they disturb their surroundings.

I feel like having a static X DC for listen to hear someone running while invisible about the place would be a good idea, with a higher DC, for those who take the time to walk or sneak about covered up.

Just because someone can't see you, doesn't mean they can't hear you.

Sadly this is not possible due to engine limitations. Rejected.

This too shall pass.

(I now have a DM Discord (I hope) It's DM GrumpyCat#7185 but please keep in mind I'm very busy IRL so I can't promise how quick I'll get back to you.)
