But how often do you get to unload with multiple, ranged sneak attacks in a round?
Not often. Missing out on a sneak attack once in a blue moon doesn't come close to balancing the extraordinary benefits that the warlock gives rogues.
My complaint is that warlock boosts rogues too easily.
Just take 2 levels and you don't have to invest skill points in climb, and you get a big, fat +6 to jump, balance, and tumble. It's like an unconditional prestige class for 2nd level characters.
Even a 1-for-1 rogue/warlock won't lose out...
Thanks.
I saw that one. It's nice, but I'm actually trying to find one that IS hobbity, but not fat and leering.
It might come down to trawling old hobby stores for discontinued Ral Parthas.
Can anyone recommend a decent halfling-with-shortbow miniature?
The ones I've found are generally old castings, and they all look like ageing alcoholic Hobbits.
