[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 8737800, member: 12731"] I made a claim "FWIW The Rogue class needs to get both its Sneak Attacks in nearly every round to be competitive DPR-wise." You didn't just scroll past this. Instead you claimed I wasn't truthful. As evidence of this, you continued with "I’ve done the math" as if I'm know around here to just make claims without backup. Then you explained your math: "and the rogue’s SA with 1 attack per round is equal to the value obtained by extrapolating a wizard’s spell slots" [I]But where did I even talk about Wizards?[/I] Stop assuming a Rogue's capabilities should somehow be judged against wizards, or the hyperspecific "translated directly into single target damage over enough rounds to run the wizard out of slots." That's cherrypicking to make a Rogue player feel good about his or her mediocricity, and it doesn't fly by me. So no. I am not joking. Neither am I making "untrue" statements. You might not need a high DPR to feel good about your Rogue, but that's something else. What I am saying is that if you aren't even aware you have the capacity for two SAs per round, you have an awakening coming. I compare it to a Fighter character that somehow have missed the GWM or SS feats (and how to properly use them). [/QUOTE]
