Increasing the range of a rogue's ranged sneak attack.


3.5/d20/OGL


In all versions (excluding 1st and AD&D) a rogue's sneak attack is limited to a 30ft range. Are there any feats that increase that? What books?

Thanks.

Crossbow Sniper from PH2 expands the range of sneak attacks and skirmish to 60 feet. It also lets you add half your Dex bonus to damage. Requires Weapon Focus in any crossbow.


There are also some spells that will do it. One will increase the range to 30ft. Another one will make the range unlimited, but only if you don't move. I think they are in the complete arcane.


Sweet! Thanks! I'll check those out.

I knew I could rely on you guys. <3

Also, the PrC Order of the Bow Initiate has an ability that increases any precision based damage to 60ft, but that's at the 10th level of the class IIRC.


Yeah, the PC that this info is for is part of that prestige class already, but we don't often make it past about 14-15th level, so I wanted to see what else was out there.


The Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting has a regional feat for Kyonin (the elven homeland) that lets you deal precision damage (like sneak attack or favoured enemy bonuses) up to the weapon's range increment if you make a full-round attack.
