[QUOTE="Artoomis, post: 2694699, member: 111"] The prblem is that "Starting at 4th level, a rogue can react to danger before her senses would normally allow her to do so. She retains her Dexterity bonus to AC (if any) even if she is caught flat-footed or struck by an invisible attacker. However, she still loses her Dexterity bonus to AC if immobilized" included the word "even." Had that word been ommitted, it would have been limited to the two listed instance only, wihout question. The word "even" leaves open the possible interpretation of this to mean in all circumstances except when immobilized. The FAQ has a few entires on this topic. Taken as a whole, it would seem that what you want to do here is to see if a feint is more like some form of immobilization or more like being flat-footed. This seems to me to be somewhat in-between - you are not flat-footed, just distracted - which is not immobile, either. I think, for me, I'd probably allow Uncanny Dodge to work against a Feint. It seems to fit within the spirit of Uncanny Dodge. I think it's really a case of a need for a FAQ entry if you want a definitive ruling. [/QUOTE]
