Can Ring Gates allow you to Sneak Attack?


Rules Questions

Can Ring Gates allow you to sneak attack. So, let's say you are in a covered wagon and peek through a ring gate that is hanging on the outside of said wagon. An opponent is nearby, I stab him.

Can I apply my SA on that? What about follow up attacks?

Would it be any different of he could see me? He may not expect my stab to magically appear infront of him if he doesn't know how the item works.

What if the ring is on ally?

Never played a game with the rings.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/clarification.

Since they arguably give you complete concealment and you can specifically attack through them, sure. Probably only once though, unless you have some possibility to move the other ring around and maybe more importantly, obscure it from the enemy's sight.


I think you'd get sneak attack every time, they can't see you, so effectively you're invisible. However, after maybe 1 or 2 attacks they'd ready an action to lop off an arm...

Can you see through the ring gate, or would you also have to deal with 50% concealment?
