[QUOTE="Paraxis, post: 6541803, member: 13009"] I put down no one, I have no reason to do so and it is not nice to do so. I stated you game with 9 people who can't understand a simple rule, that is a fact not a put down. [I]The Weapons table shows the most common weapons used in the worlds of D&D, their price and weight, the damage they deal when they hit, and any special properties they possess. Every weapon is classified as [B]either[/B] melee [B]or[/B] ranged. A melee weapon is used to attack a target within 5 feet of you, whereas a ranged weapon is used to attack a target at a distance.[/I] - pg 146 PHB "SNEAK ATTACK: Beginning at 1st level, you know how to strike subtly and exploit a foe’s distraction. Once per turn, you can deal an extra 1d6 damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll. [B]The attack must use a finesse or a ranged weapon[/B]." - pg 96 PHB A handaxe is a melee weapon therefore it can't also be a ranged weapon, as it is [B]either[/B] melee [B]or [/B]ranged, not both. A handaxe does not have the finesse property. Having not the finesse property or being a ranged weapon you can not sneak attack with a handaxe. The fact that you and 9 other people can't comprehend that is not my problem, and it is not a put down to point it out. You are the one who called people on these forums trolls, you put fellow members of this community down, not I. At this point I have to assume you are blatantly ignoring simple and easy to understand rules. [/QUOTE]
