[QUOTE="Shin Okada, post: 4009762, member: 1956"] "from Rogue" or "from Ninja" is somewhat incorrect rule terms. Let's make it much simpler, He is a Rogue 8/Ninja 2. So has BAB of +7/+1 in total He has Weapon Finesse and Two-weapon fighting feats. I assume he has Improved Two-Weapon Fighting feat, too. Now his Dex is +6 and using a pair of +3 Short Swords. Now, when he makes a full attack with two short swords, his attacks are, +3 Short Sword (primal) = +14/+9 (+7/+1 BAB, +6 Dex, +3 Sword, -2 two-weapon penalty) and +3 Short Sword (off hand) = +14/+9 (+7/+1 BAB, +6 Dex, +3 Sword, -2 two-weapon penalty) His attack rolls improved by +2 if he is flanking or being invisible. +4, if both conditions are met. And if he is just flanking he can only use his +4d6 sneak attack. His +1d6 Sudden strike works only when the opponent is flat-footed or losing dex bonus to AC. (where did that +6d6 sneak attack came from?) So usually, the best case happens only when he is flanking his enemy and invisible. Nothing wrong with it. It is not so different from attacks of usual two-weapon rogues. Rogues may inflict tremendous amount of damages when conditions are met and the opponent is vulnerable to sneak attacks (rather good number of monsters are immune to it). Edit: Oops. I ovelooked that OTCM thing. Whtat is that? And even if that is 3.5e Ninja, BAB should be +7/+2 instead of +7/+1. [/QUOTE]
