After that, the rogue's damage potential drops dramatically.If you're a good rogue and take out the weakest link (or have your party focus on the strongest), you've already taken a good third to half of the antagonist's offensive power at the first round. Improved Initiative is insurance to add to your already high init to give you a huge advantage in gaining the jump on someone, preferably the opposing spellcasters.</blockquote>
