Thanks to all of you who pointed out my error about getting only two turns of actions. I wonder who will be the first rogue thief to get FOUR sneak attacks in one round. 1) 17th level Rogue Thief allowed two turns on first round of combat 2) Use bonus action on first turn to attack with a...

How cool is that... According to this my rogue can pick up a chair and use it as an improvised weapon and make a "ranged attack" and do sneak attack damage. Not sure if that would be allowed at our table.

I still do not see how any rogue will ever get three sneak attacks in one round. It is true that a "very rare" Scimitar of Speed will allow use of a bonus action to attack without the use of your action thus allowing for a ready action but I am not sure how many rogues have this item. But with...

Okay - question. We all agree that a rapier is a melee weapon, right? So... can my rogue throw it as an improvised thrown weapon? I think I should be allowed to do this. Now the big question is does the fact that I threw this weapon and am making a ranged attack make my rapier become a...

Hmmm. It seems that people think you can simply use a bonus action to attack with a light weapon anytime you want. That is not how I read the rules. 1) P. 189 states, "You can take a bonus action only when a special ability, spell, or other feature of the game states that you can... You...

While I do not agree that Subtle Spell allows casting with no spell material components, "... cast it without any somatic or verbal components." I do agree that ONLY this skill/ability allows the casting of a spell without being noticed. If not, what fool would ever select Subtle Spell as one...

I have a real problem with a character of any Str. wearing full plate armor and moving as fast and easily as the wizard with no armor at all. When I first saw this in RAW I knew it was a problem. I liked the older versions that made it simple, if you wear this armor you move this fast...

I use the Half Elf Hexblade for the Cultist as they wear nice black armor and have what could pass for a scimitar as a weapon.

Going with party of another rogue and a sorcerer with criminal background. Basically sneaking around and attacking with surprise. Can a Rogue use a scroll to acquire the familiar? It would be nice to have a free scout as well.

A Trickster Rogue can select find familiar as their one non illusion/enchantment spell and do good things like - always deal sneak attack damage when their familiar is within 5' of their target. But if the Rogue wants another useful spell in the free choice slot like magic missile, can that...

Do Rogues get Sneak Attack damage with ANY attack that offers advantage? 5e book reads, "Once per turn, you can deal an extra 1d6 damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll" I don't see where it states that you have to have surprise in order for a...

Rogues - Advantage - Sneak Attack damage
