[QUOTE="bret, post: 10736, member: 713"] The 13th level wizard could do a Quickened Haste, Disintegrate, Disintegrate in a surprise round. I think the spell ability nicely proves that they are a serious threat. Dagger throwing is nice, especially with a Ring of Blinking so you can get Sneak Attack damage. It doesn't make sense, but for some reason the Blinking ability would allow you to do this. The topic I was responding to was "Should a rogue be limited to 1 sneak attack per round." In my opinion, if you do this it makes it so that the rogue is the only class that will not pose a signficant threat at high levels. It is bad enough that there is a large group of creatures which are partially or fully immune to criticals, and therefore immune to sneak attacks. Anyone really worried about the rogues can protect themselves. Wizards, Sorcerers and Bards can use Blur (100% protection since they have concealment). Monks can out run them. The rest of the classes can invest in Fortified Armour. It is much easier to protect against the senak attack ability of a rogue than it is against any other classes ability. [/QUOTE]
