[QUOTE="RigaMortus, post: 2093236, member: 1077"] So let's say you have a high level Assassin (high enough to cast 4th level Assassin spells)... For purposes of the Assassin's Death Attack, can an Assassin study more than 1 opponent at a time? I don't see any reason why not. They don't really define how the Assassin studies their opponent, other than they must keep their attention focused on their target (singular). But again, what does that mean? I don't see why you couldn't focus on multiple targets at once (so long as they are near one another). If you are focusing on one target, do you get penalties against you if someone else (whom you are not focusing on) attacks you? The reason I ask this is because it could open up the doors for an Assassin to do multiple Death Attacks (at a range) at one time... Using Sniper's Eye allows you to make Sneak Attacks at a 60' range, and it allows you to perform Death Attacks at range. So if the Assassin were to have Greater Manyshot, study multiple targets at once (while invisible of course) and launch Death Attacking arrows at more than one target, it could get kind of nasty.
