I was wondering how sneak attack stacking works for the Phantom.
In the class description it states that it can't stack with rogue sneak attacks. Which would be fine, but how about sneak attacks from other sources - like other classes? Which ones can be stacked with the Phantom?
Also - what about using a weapon that adds sneak attack damage. Does it stack?

Re: Stacking sneak attack
Other prcs sneak attacks should stack, but weapons/ items that add sneak will not since they don't stack worth rogue sneak attack

Re: Stacking sneak attack
Wait... so sneak attacks from items don't stack with sneak attacks from any class? :

Re: Stacking sneak attack
No, they don't stack with ROGUE sneak attacks and likely phantom. They do stack with assassin death attack and should stack with any sneak dice from prc'sTaeron wrote:Wait... so sneak attacks from items don't stack with sneak attacks from any class? :

Re: Stacking sneak attack
If new and bought them from a shop and not the auction house you can ask a DM if its okay to reimburse I would think. Just a suggestion as I thought exactly the same, and that was 6 months into the game

Re: Stacking sneak attack
ok so DA from sin stacks on rogue and phantom and SA from items stack with DA from sin but SA from items wont stack on SA from rogue or phantom. i suppose that makes sense. the SA from items is the exact same SA as base class SA so they will not stack. it would be like having toughness from FB and WoD. only counting once.

Re: Stacking sneak attack
stacking is why there are so many different SA type feats, but it still sucks because only rogue SA quals for ISA bc its the only one that goes high enough (maybe phantom too i guess?)
