Pressure Points Trick


Rules Questions


I just want to verify that the pressure point damage to strength or dexterity is
1 point per sneak dice? So 3d6 sneak damage also grants 3 strength or dexterity damage.


"A ninja with this trick can strike at an opponent's vital pressure points, causing weakness and intense pain. Whenever the ninja deals sneak attack damage, she also deals 1 point of Strength or Dexterity damage, decided by the ninja. Unlike normal ability damage, this damage can be healed by a DC 15 Heal check. Each successful check heals 1 point of damage caused by this trick. A ninja with this trick receives a +10 insight bonus on this Heal check."

No,unless it said something like below

"equal to the number of the ninja’s sneak attack dice."

Otherwise it just 1 point whenever you deal sneak attack. Or else a level 9 ninja with 5d6 sneak attack dice can take Two Weapon Fightning and attack 4 times a round, which become 20 ability damage
