Hi,
I need some help interpreting the Rakish Audacity entry (3rd level).
The first time I read it, I had expectations and maybe that blind me to a more wide (or unbiased) interpretation. Furthermore I'm not a native speaker and maybe I misinterpreted someting.
To the point...
When it says: "you don't need advantage on your attack roll to use your Sneak Attack if no creature other than your target is within 5 feet of you"
I, by default, interpreted as if the target too needed to be within 5 foot, but after a recent re-reading I'm not that sure anymore.
As long as there are no other creatures whitin 5 feet from the character, the target can be further away and still the feature be applied/valid?
Obviously this would make a huge difference for an archer rogue.
My group is preparing a new campaign and one of the players told me the concept He want to meet with his character (elven archer, more on the side of 'one shot you will not forget' than 'I will make you a pincushion') asking for suggestions. Depending on this not little detail this could be one of the possibilities (ad it fits quite well, for a really good shoot you need no distraction around you, not even friendly ones).
Tanks to all who will reply.
