[QUOTE="Fisk, post: 28714, member: 2410"] Well I guess that will be the last time I try to squeeze off a quick post before leaving work(quick read, no spell check). Ya … spelling that’s flame worthy material. Do you flame punctuation too? What other items of significance to you flame for…..???? By the way how did the statistical analysis of the fighter picking locks and finding/disarming traps work out? As far as sarcasm ….. now which of you who cast the stones was without sin? The Chap (graydoom) who posted the quoted and insanely long post. I got carpal tunnel syndrome by proxy. By the way your point in which you pose the point that "maybe the creature will continue to be unable to 'effectively defend itself''. Was indeed a good argument. But do to the fact that you used MAYBE does put a degree of doubt that each of the remaining attacks would be eligible for sneak attack bonus damage. I will concede that it is possible. Which leads me to wonder what would be a workable solution? Since I don't feel it should be automatic for the remaining attacks I think it would be appropriate to give the creature a reflex save on each attack to avoid the additional bonus damage. Clue me in here….. if a post with a little spice that questions the "group think" is inappropriate then tell me what is. Is this a forum where you tell each other what the books say? Oh and the day a guy who has a cartoon under his name to "represent him" makes me feel bad is the same day I enter into a covenant to never be sarcastic again. [/QUOTE]
