[QUOTE="RigaMortus, post: 1701634, member: 1077"] Again, I don't see the big deal. First off, we are talking a level 20 character doing 33d6. It is only two extra times per day, and it still doesn't apply to undead/constructs/etc. nor does it work against concealment (Blur for example). How much damage does a Fireball do? How many targets can you affect with that? Fighting something with Fire Resistance, use Energy Substitution. Need to hit more targets, Widen Spell. There are tons of ways to alter spells for maximum efficency. There are only a handful of ways to maximize Sneak Attacks efficiency, and again, they don't apply in a lot of situations. A character would have to be level 9 before they can do 1 Impromptu Sneak Attack. That would be 6 caster levels and 3d6 Sneak Attack OR d6 damage total (only 1 ray). Not a big deal IMHO. By level Character Level 13 you could do all 3 rays for 10d6 (20d6 total) twice a day with Impromptu Sneak Attack. As much damage as a level 20 Fireball, but just to one target (as opposed to many) and only if specific conditions are met. Why penalize a player (character) for being creative? [/QUOTE]
