[QUOTE="Ruvion, post: 463380, member: 878"] I've always liked Lost Soul's sneak attack feats (I think it was from a classless system he was trying to build by turning all class abilities to feats if I'm not mistaken).... Here's some changes I've made on them: Surprise Attack I [General, Regional]: You are the skilled at taking advantage of flatfooted opponents during an ambush. Benefit: When wearing light armor or no armor, you can make a [b]melee[/b] sneak attack at +1d6 damage [b]against flatfooted foes during a surprise round[/b]. Special: As sneak attacks aim for critical areas, creatures that are immune to critical hits are immune to sneak attack. Rangers can take this feat at level 1 and higher. Prerequisites: DEX 13+, WIS 13+, Search +4, Spot +4, Proficient with light armors. Surprise Attack II [General, Regional]: You are the skilled at taking advantage of flatfooted opponents. Benefit: When wearing light armor or no armor, you can make [b]melee[/b] sneak attacks at +2d6 damage [b]against flatfooted foes[/b]. Prerequisites: DEX 14+, WIS 14+, Search +6, Spot +6, Surprise Attack I. Surprise Attack III [General, Regional]: You are the skilled at taking advantage of flatfooted opponents. Benefit: When wearing light armor or no armor, you can make sneak attacks at +3d6 damage [b]against flatfooted foes (within 30’)[/b]. Prerequisites: DEX 14+, WIS 14+, Search +8, Spot +8, Surprise Attack II. Surprise Attack IV [General, Regional]: You are the skilled at delivering devastating attacks when opponents show weaknesses. Benefit: When wearing light armor or no armor, you can make sneak attacks at +4d6 damage [b]against flatfooted foes and foes that you are flanking[/b]. Prerequisites: DEX 15+, WIS 15+, Search +10, Spot +10, Surprise Attack III. Surprise Attack V [General, Regional]: You are the skilled at delivering devastating attacks when opponents show weaknesses. Benefit: When wearing light armor or no armor, you can make sneak attacks at +5d6 damage [b]against flatfooted foes and foes that you are flanking[/b]. Prerequisites: DEX 15+, WIS 15+, Search +12, Spot +12, Surprise Attack IV. [/QUOTE]
