Sneak damage with spells question


Rules Questions


Normally as i understand you apply sneak damage as the same type of damage the spell
Does and thus the combat continues. However i was wondering (thoughts you all) if you snuck attacked with a spell like acid arrow would not sneak damage be applied each
Round?

Also if anyone knows "FallingIcicle" im looking for them!


Nope, only when an attack roll happens unless the spell has some unusual wording.

Acid arrow for example specifically states it does 2d4 damage a round after the attack (for every 3 caster levels).

If instead it said something like "this spell repeats the same damage as done on the initial attack" or something then there might be a case for repeating sneak attack damage, but I don't think many people would buy that either.
