Now, the Scourge only deals 1d4 on its face, but it's got Finesse, making it viable for Rogues whose Dex is higher than their Strength, particularly Thieves. This is an amazing choice for both the Ruffian and the Cha/Str Scoundrel, particularly with that rune on there! Keep in mind that the Thrown ability does trigger Sweep, if you give the Hatchet a Returning rune to be able to do so multiple times in a turn. It doesn't have Finesse, and you add half your STR to the Thrown damage as well. which means the human 'Unconventional Weaponry' feat for a specific culture, as they don't appear on the other Races' lists.ДЇor the Hatchet, you want as high an STR as possible.

That said, at a -3 on the second hit, if you crit on the first strike, you're still extremely likely to hit on the second.Д«oth are Martial weapons, and therefore require feats to keep up properly. Sweep, if it goes off, gives us 0/-3/-7, but requires splitting our attacks between two or more enemies.

They both have Agile and a second ability that impacts the MaP in Sweep, making them the only weapons more accurate for us than our own two fists.ДЄgile gives us a MaP of 0/-4/-8. Ruffian requires looking at the Weapon Specializations for Simple weapons, and any Rogue at level 5 of greater needs them for the rest.ДЇirst two weapons I'm going to point out: the Hatchet and the Scourge. Sneak Attacking multiple times in a round is generally more important than using a higher damage die, so we'll look at abilities that improve the MaP, as well as how many attacks you can make in 6 actions. Our list of weapons must compare all Agile, Finesse, non-thrown Ranged, (and Simple for the Ruffian) The number of dice increases at 5th, 11th, and 17th levels. For a ranged attack with a thrown melee weapon, that weapon must also be agile or finesse. If you Strike a creature that has the flat-footed condition with an agile or finesse melee weapon, an agile or finesse unarmed attack, or a ranged weapon attack, you deal an extra 1d6 precision damage. When your enemy canвЂ™t properly defend itself, you take advantage to deal extra damage. That out of the way, let's look at the mechanic we're exploiting: Sneak Attack. Scoundrels have the easiest time guaranteeing the Flat-Footed Condition in Melee Ruffians have it as easy, but only if they spend an action Every turn rather than every other turn. Thieves with Finesse are essentially Dex Ruffians, until they get to the Thief-specific feats. It helps that so much of this is incomparable, though - makes the deep dive so much more fun.ДЇor the following, let us state the following: So, I started building a Rogue as a backup character for if a new player wanted to join my weekly game, and it got me thinking - what weapon is the best for our sneaky guy?
