I've always heard Elan's song in my head as being similar to the end of "Transmission" by Joy Division where it goes "Dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnWPGSQjFUc&t=125s

There are builds where you can both sneak attack at range AND sneak attack undead; the idea being you're striking at their meridians that carry negative energy that provides locomotion; like acupuncture.

In this case however. Elan's just saying the range does not matter cause she can't get a sneak attack anyway.

Even without sneak attack, bows still have a range increment.

Is the site super slow for anyone else ? I was trying to find one particular comic (that I don't recall the exact details of) and it's like it takes five seconds to load a page.

Not being allowed sneak attack Undead was always super dumb to me. Like I viewed it as one of the worst parts of D&D, and more of a problem then anything alignment related. Like the idea was Undead don't have functioning anatomy or weak points for you to exploit. So you can't shoot a zombie in the head or stab a vampire in the Heart.

I mean, it's even worse. You can also not sneak attack constructs, plants and oozes. Neither can you sneak attack creatures that have concealment, or creatures that are immune to critical hits. At reasonably high levels, you don't have to try to find any of those. I once played a rogue in a one-shot where the DM had built every encounter with creatures that had one or more of these traits, entirely by accident. I was highly displeased.

Of all the things you can't sneak attack, oozes make the most sense. They don't have organs or even a particularly important part.

Concealment makes sense as well but concealment is just too broad and too easy to have. Like if you see someone in silhouette they have concealment, which is bullshit. You see they shape. Like if someone is hiding behind a curtain, that's real concealment. Sure make it impossible to sneak attack that, you don't know what you're stabbing.

There should be more monster weaknesses giving them vulnerability to sneak attack and critical hits. It's really odd that you can't sneak attack a golem for example; when the original myth of the golem had it animated by a piece of paper put in its mouth -- remove or deface the paper and it turns back to inert matter.

You see they shape. The best part of this is that it means an assassin can't sneak attack someone to death while they sleep in a darkened room. They have concealment from the darkness. (Sure they can coup de grace or whatever but still.)

Well, in that case it kind of makes sense. Coup de gras kills them outright, sneak attack might not as it just does damage. The concealment thing is still dumb, but sometimes it's dumb enough to wrap around and make sense.

Hell, you can play a Kensai and get a magic weapon and actual class features! Edit: I mean, they're kinda lovely class features because somebody at WotC decided that the best thing a weapon-focused PrC needs is a 3/4 BAB, but still better than Ancestral. girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 04:36 on May 4, 2018 |
