Sniper's Eye (Talent)

Sniper's Eye (Su)

Prerequisites: -

Benefit: A rogue with this talent can apply her full sneak attack damage on attacks that successfully strike foes with partial concealment (20% miss chance) that are within 30 feet. Foes with total concealment (50% miss chance) that are struck take half the rogue's sneak attack damage (round down). Note that this talent does not eliminate the miss chance; the attack must still hit. Similarly, this talent does not automatically make concealed foes subject to sneak attacks; the foe must still be flat-footed, flanked, etc. to be subject to sneak attacks.

Special: A rogue with the "Ruthless Rogue" path may, once per encounter, declare that an opponent who has concealment that the rogue has not yet attacked is flat-footed to the rogue's next attack. The foe is so negligent of the rogue's ability to strike him that he ignores the possibility. Note that, because the creature isn't actually flat-footed, this talent works on creatures with roles (such as heavies and threats) which are normally resistant or immune to conditions.

Normal: A rogue cannot deal sneak attack damage against a creature with concealment.
