    Hi,

    My level 2 rogue uses 2weapon fighting. He can get 2 sneak attack blows per round.

    If he takes one level of monk, he will get to have two attacks PLUS a 3rd attack from flurry of blows. Will that third attack also get sneak attack damage?

    Only if you're wielding a special monk weapon that allows flurrying.

    Keep in mind that the penalties will stack, so each of your attacks will be at -4.

    Or...

    ...try searching the topic on the Atari's ToEE website. This has been discussed there, as I recall...because modding wasn't there what it is here.

    Nice... seems worth it.

    So if I had a rogue using a quaterstaff 2handed, he could get a 2handed ambush followed by another 2handed ambush (with the other end of the quarterstaff.

    Seems like rogues get a lot of benefit from taking one level of monk. The only problem is that the rogue has to be lawful!
