Sneak Attack Question


Rules Questions


Hey guys, I'm new to these forums and I was hoping I could get someone to clear this up for me.

Lets say I have an Invisibility Ring activated on my rouge(with TWF) and I full attack a flat footed enemy. Do I roll sneak damage for only the first attack or for every attack that hits? Thanks in advance!


Only the first attack. Activating the ring basically casts the Invisibility spell on you, which is broken when you attack. If there were a Ring of Greater Invisibility, though, it would allow you to get sneak attack on every hit.

Also if he were flat-footed for other reasons, such as not having acted in combat or balancing with acrobatics, you would get it on all attacks.


What if I feint(with Greater Feint) or flank the enemy?


If you can maintain the qualifications for a sneak attack for the entire attack (such as flanking or a flat-footed enemy), you get sneak attack on every single attack that lands.

The only limit on the number of sneak attacks you can get in a round is the number of attacks you can make while the circumstances are valid.

So if a 1st level rogue with Two-Weapon Fighting wielding shortswords were flanking an enemy, he'd make both his attacks, and add sneak attack to any that land.
