Message: <blockquote data-quote="B4cchus" data-source="post: 3996050" data-attributes="member: 35026">I choose spring attack, but with the addition to opt for scout in stead of rogue.I had the same question a little while back when creating a character for the Red Hand of Doom.I decided that spring attack and sneak attack wasn't the best choice since a TWF rogue would get so much more out of his sneak attack. I came with two options: Use a rogue with two weapon fighting or a scout with spring attack. I choose the latter because it'd be quite difficult to remain in sneak attack position (mainly flakning) and still be able to retain a full attack routine. Also, I didn't want my rogue/scout to get the full blunt of full attacks from his opponents all the time.One could argue, offcourse, that sneak attack is far more potent than skirmish (sneak attack = 1/2 level rounded up in d6's. Skirmish only 1/3  (average, it's non linear) level d6's) but this is made up by the improved skirmish feat (+2d6) and the fact that the scout can use his skirmish almost all the time.We've played two sessions now and I must say i'm very happy with my choice. Not only does the spring attack keep me out of full attack routines (be sure to max out tumble!) but also I get to use the extra skirmish damage almost all the time (also on ranged attacks!).</blockquote>
