[QUOTE="Ravingdork, post: 4300934, member: 12084"] [COLOR=DarkRed]In the weapons section it lists a shuriken as a 'light blade' & 'light thrown'. Would this enable it to qualify for certain Rogue exploits that require a light blade? i.e. Piercing Strike or Riposte Strike.[/COLOR] Yes. It is a ranged weapon, however, and therefor won't work with melee only powers. [COLOR=DarkRed]Also when a rogue uses abilities like Tumble or Bait & Switch to shift more than a single square are her enemies still not able to make an OA on her since it is still a shift (albeit a much longer one). Could a rogue use the shift ability of Tumble (shift = one half speed) and the shift ability of Bait & Switch (on successful attack shift a number of squares = CHA bonus) to effectively shift up to 4 or more squares in the same round? [/COLOR] Yes, you can use both powers to get lots of movement in the round--none of which would grant opportunity attacks to your enemies. [COLOR=DarkRed]Thanks! My wife and I converted/rebuilt her 3rd level ninja last night and these were some questions that came up. She is actually getting interested in the tactical side of things (she thought there was awesome potential in the tumble/B&S combo). She has always been an swesome role player but only mildly interested in the tactical/combat side of things. 4E has saved my marriage! ;) :D[/COLOR] Glad to hear it! [/QUOTE]
