Generally it's most valuable when striking Large or large creatures as you can get to them without drawing attacks of opportunity and then get out of their threat range. Provided you have a tank keeping them in place it's a zero risk scenario. Unfortunately, you give up your iterative attacks at higher levels and if a tank is keeping the target in place you're better to tumble in to flank and do multiple sneak attacks.For a melee rogue I would look at Weapon Focus (Rapier most likely). This increases your chance to hit, combined with Weapon Finesse you should be trailing close behind the Fighters in attack bonus. I would also look at any feats that increase your ability to feint via the Bluff skill, especially those that bring down the time requirement. Your sneak attack is your primary damage ability and any means you can find to increase the opportunities to use it should be pursued. You may also want to look at the Combat Reflexes, Vexing Flanker, Adaptable Flanker chain in PHII. These will REALLY increase your talent with sneak attacks.Jack</blockquote>
