Unseen Seer (C Mage): Prerequisite?

[funmasta]

Does this Bonus damage require to already have Sneakattack (or whatever) or can u get sneakattack just with this ability?


Damage Bonus: At 1st level, the extra damage you deal
with your sneak attack, skirmish, or sudden strike ability
increases by ld6. If you have more than one of these abilities,
only one ability gains this increase (choose each time
you gain this benefit).
Your sneak attack, skirmish, or sudden strike damage
increases by another ld6 at 4th level, 7th level, and 10th
level.

I've assumed before that it's simply if you have it, it increases. So, you don't need it or get it, but if you had levels in rogue beforehand, you get it

 

[funmasta]

I mean: if u dont have sneak attack would u get sneakattack with this feature?

 

[Kurashu]

No. There's nothing there to increase, so you don't gain it. It's presumed you have it.

 

[Sejs]

As others have said:

It's not a requirement.

If you already have it, it increases.

If you do not already have it, you do not get it.
