[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9351285, member: 7030563"] If your campaign is one you can get lots of magic daggers, or at high level lots of good magic daggers then daggers are fine. The issue with relying on thrown weapons though is you need a lot of them if you are going to do it every round. At 8th level you probably want to go into a fight with 8 magic daggers. If finding them won't be a problem in your campaign then this is not an issue. With the Half Elf Hexblade there is a lot going on here. First Elven accuracy is feat, then you need another one for Sentinel and another for Quick Toss if you want it (or another multiclass). Using Darkness is an action, using Hexblades curse is a bonus action. This is going to cut into the numbers of sneak attacks you make and you are getting less damage per sneak attack. On a 3 level dip you are losing 2d6 every time you successfully sneak attack AND you are trying less sneak attack because you are using your actions and bonus actions for other things. Not saying it is bad, but it is not optimizing sneak attack I don't think. Also as a Rogue you can get advantage on your turn through steady aim and as a Kobold you can get it both on your turn and on your reaction with Draconic Cry. So you can already cause advantage with other options besides Devil's sight without burning an action. Pack Tactics is on the Legacy Kobold but not the current Kobold. IF your DM lets you use it great. If you are using Sentinel and attacking from 10 feet away behind your ally, keep in mind the enemy is going to have a +2 cover bonus. [/QUOTE]
