[QUOTE="Mal Malenkirk, post: 111536, member: 834"] How the hell do you sneak attack a dragon with a ranged weapon? In his sleep? Oh, nevermind. I agree that by the rules any spell that requires an attack roll and deal damage can be a sneak attack. Personnaly, I deny the possibility to do a critical hit (and therefore a sneak attack) with a select few spell that require an attack roll; those that deal negative energy. For example, the inflict wounds spell. First of all, it would be weird to do a critical inflict wound if you can't do a critical cure wound on your friends. And secondly, I don't believe it really matters wether you touch the throat or the little finger since you are only sapping life energy anyway. But the ray of frost is a fine option for a sneak attack, altough if you are reduced to using this when facing a dragon you probably should run like hell instead. [/QUOTE]
