[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6730398, member: 22779"] No one is saying that though. We're talking about granting a single attack, not a full action. You're right, granting a full action would be too powerful. So, why would you assume that? The rogue can only sneak once per turn, so, granting him extra attacks doesn't actually do anything since it's not a turn it would simply be an attack as a free action. I suppose if the rogue wiffed that round, it might make a difference, but, generally, no, it's not going to matter. And the paladin is simply blowing through his daily powers. Sure, he smites three times in this fight rather than twice, for example, but, now he has one less smite for the day. It balances out. Do people rule that attacks made with a Battlemaster also allow sneak attack? Do you get sneak attack on opportunity attacks as well? Opportunity attacks are reactions, not turns - they are called out differently on page 189-190 in the PHB. I simply ruled that once per turn meant the rogue's turn, not any turn. If, for some reason, the rogue gained a second turn in the round, then he would gain two sneak attacks. [/QUOTE]
