Increasing Ranged Sneak Attack distances

[Eigengrau]

Besides taking the Rogue-Sniper Archetype, what other ways can you increase your range for the Sneak Attack 30ft limit?

Sniper's Goggles, mostly.

Thanks! Those seem to be what I would need.

there is a rogue talent (deadly range) that moves it out another 10'

Awesome, I didn't see it before because it was a Ninja Trick!

Would a Bow or Crossbow of Distance Double the range at which you can sneak attack as well? Would it double the effective range of Point Blank Shot, since all your range increments are doubled?

No, the 30 ft 'range' of sneak attack (and most other forms of precision attack that I know of) is independent of the range of the weapon. For example, you can throw a dagger 30ft and do sneak damage but that is the 3rd range increment of the weapon. It would effectively reduce the range penalty for doing so however.

The problem I've found in games isn't how to get sneak attack at better ranges, it's how to get sneak attack at all on ranged attacks. You're either reliant on a caster/item for Invis, orlimiting yourself to one shot per round and using Sneak checks at a big penalty. Either method only gets sneak attack dice on the first shot per round (until Improved Invis).

The only other method I've found is if you have a racial Darkness ability, cast it around yourself. That way you can attack from concealment constantly, although in reality being ridiculously conspicuous.

Ifrit or Oracle Fire Sight and an Eversmoking Bottle

Only slightly more conspicuous than darkness, and much more effective.

What about the Sniper Shot feat? It doesnt show up on the general feat list but I can find it there when I search for it.

You can snipe now for 0 penalty as a 5th level rogue halfling with stealth unlocked and fast stealth alternate racial trait, and hide amongst your party to boot.
