[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 7634786, member: 6704184"] For the Dance Sneak Attack ability, I think simplicity is key. If we boost stealth, we get there anyway. no opportunity attacks is really strong by itself, and I’d say that stealth benefits and cunning action cover enough that we don’t need it. So so what about hiding while in dim light or darkness, and the ability to dim light sources within 30ft as a bonus action? For 9: I would want something different from shadow monks. What about the ability to use your movement to teleport, following the same rules as normal movement (can split it up, benefits from Dash, etc), While in Shadow Dance or while in dim light or darkness? If we wanna put teleport at 13, what about a shadow blade style thing here? 13: If we teleport at 9, why not scry here? See and hear through a space of shadow within X distance? 17: I really love a shadow double that fights with you, summoned the first time you get Sneak Attack(steal their shadow), or when you enter shadow dance, lasts until it hits 0hp or shadow dance ends? Another idea is that you become insubstantial while in Shadow Dance, and can use any Cunning Action option as part of activating shadow dance. If shadow teleport is based on speed, this becomes really fun. Id be fine with a shadow blade at level 3, as part of shadow dance or not, that simply lets you create weapons from shadow, and then gets extra damage later. [/QUOTE]
