Halfling Guile

Hey there,
Simple question: Does the sneak damage bonus from Halfling Guile apply to all attacks that would qualify as a sneak attack like the backstabbing bonus on weapons does, or does it only apply to "real" sneak attacks?


So long,

all attacks on sneakable targets when you've not aggro - you dont have to a (part)rogue.

100% sure?

What's a "real sneak attack"? There is only one type: If you don't have aggro from your target, or if it is affected by a limited list of conditions (such as being blinded or held) you will apply sneak attack damage to that target.

The sneak attack damage can come from several sources, such as weapon/equipment, enhancements, or rogue levels. Doesn't matter where it comes from, it works the same.

Yep. Everyone gets sneak attack somewhere. I saw somewhere as I was making a non-rogue once, a sneak attack feat listed, but it put the sneak attack damage at 0D6 damage. Just look at the backstabbing weapons. It specifies non-rogues get the bonus too.
