I believe the intent of the Feat was Defense but maybe it was for both Offense and Defense. But if it is for both then the wording should have been written different "Always on the lookout for danger" to something like "Always on the lookout for danger and always on the lookout for weakness" or...

So I think the Designers get the Alertness feat wrong and made it OP; should be: Alertness - +5 to "Perception" and Advantage with "Perception" with Surprise Rolls; if you win the Perception to Stealth contest you gain +5 to Initiative fits better for the "Always on the lookout for danger"...

the Assassin does blow it's cover when it shoots the arrow but only after the Assassination attempt is resolved; 600 feet is a long distance to cover for any creature With the Feat "Skulker" the cover is not blown even after the Arrow hits The Archer "Long Bow" Assassin with the Feat...

New Feat - Spider Sense, when bitten by a radioactive Spider, humanoids gain "6th sense or some form of battle awareness". Surprise - Lost Action/Bonus Action/Move and only after your lost turn is over (After the Arrow has gone thru your neck) do you get any Reactions, Your Reaction; You think...

So, the invisible Half-Orc assassin is hiding say 80 feet in the dark and attacks with bow and arrow, attacking a human with no means of seeing the Half-Orc nor the arrow until it hits the Human and maybe not even then with Total darkness Human is surprised when the arrows hits Roll...

I think they take no action, so there is no bonus action, nor move, and after their turn they can have a reaction only. But our game the "Surprise Event" happens before the Initiative is rolled

I would start multi-classing with Rogue, then Ranger or Fighter (Archery) and Surge Action My Halfling Rogue uses the bow (Archery), she does not like to get hit, try to stay out of the way of the Paladin, 2 fighters, Barbarian and one Ranger, they have the Melee Taking Damage job down pat...

1e, 2e, I was using a 2 Handed Sword with a Assassin, seen nothing in the rules to stop it Friends of mine said that only daggers could be used for assassination (in 1e and 2e)

I don't hate the game, I like it over 3.5, 1 and 2 I can live by the Melee Range Sneak Attack from either version of the ruling, that is the only thing that I have questions about at this time

I like the reskin of darts, will use that

I do love 5.0, but I think they made it too simple, (The Game Designers kept it simple.)

I see that the Sage Advice website is not an official Wizard website.

I work for the Federal Government or I work for the IRS

Hi all, looked in Wiki, Throwing Knives are not Daggers, The Game Designers kept it simple and made one category "Daggers" and there is nothing stopping you at your "Table" from creating "Throwing Knives" as a Ranged Weapon, say a d4 + Dex, separate from Daggers like Wiki says that Throwing...

Wiki - Hand Axes H. G. Wells proposed in 1899 that hand axes were used as missile weapons to hunt prey[10] – an interpretation supported by Professor William H. Calvin of University of Washington, in Seattle who has suggested that some of the rounder examples of Acheulean hand axes were used as...

A throwing knifes and Daggers seems to be not the same weapon in Wiki, throwing knifes are smaller with no hilt. Combat Daggers are not meant to be thrown, not balanced with a hilt but can be thrown, more like sword than a throwing knife. They are a distinct category from ordinary knives. A...

I agree with the "The Archery feature is intended to work with ranged weapons." From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Archery is the practice or skill of using a bow to propel arrows. The word comes from the Latin arcus. Historically, archery has been used for hunting and combat. In modern...

But when he Tweeted it the Players Handbook was not out, so it could have changed between then and now

For the fun of it, look at Conan, he started out as a Barbarian and ended with some Rogue skills
