But to be true the sense of fishing you should use a pole in my opinion, but he only fish to eat, no other reason.
Ye gotta sneak up on 'em, lad... aye, catch 'em when they be lookin' at a foine ladyfish, an' then ye foire a splinter roigh' inna the water an' STRAIGH' up the fish-knickers... aye, it be a good lesson t'learn in loife.
darkstorme - 7/15/2006 11:14 PMYeah, but you're faced with a school of fish. Sneak attack's extra damage is based on the ability to hit vital areas. A rogue would have to be truly epic to be able to spot and hit the vital areas of a fish despite ripples and refraction.. and even if he could, what would be the point? All you have to do is lodge the arrow in the fish - you don't have to hit a vital spot. It makes no sense realistically, and mechanically, it gives an unfair advantage to rogues in one discipline. (Not that I'm against unfair rogue advantages, mind you...)

Dorganath - 7/25/2006 8:44 AMThink about that for a moment....do you think that after doing 3d6 (or more) sneak attack damage to a fish that there'd be much fish to reel back in? If there was anything, that would be one tough fish!
