I'm planning to add the 5 levels of Master Thrower to my Rogue character but I have a question about their thrown weapon tricks.
Can you use more than one trick with the same attack? For example, could I throw my dagger at an enemy using the Sneaky shot trick, denying the opponent their dex bonus to AC, and also the trick Weak Spot, denying their armor bonus to AC?
Could I take this further by also using the Doubletoss trick, allowing me to attack two targets as a ranged touch attack, with no dex bonus doing sneak attack damage?
There doesn't appear to be any mention of how many tricks you may use together and this sounds like a fantastic combination to me. Thanks.

a) You can wear bracers to provide an armour bonus. (You would miss out on armour special abilities, though). Not using the Unfettered Defence ability isn't a big loss, considering:
b) The real beauty is Feint Mastery and the added Sneak Attack, which combines well with the Rogue levels you've likely taken.
c) Skill points are sweet.
d) High Int = Good use of Knowledge Devotion (especially with the high number of attacks you're getting) and Educated, if you have the feat slots to spare.
I'd also consider dipping one or two levels in Swordsage, to get easier access to Shadow Blade. (=Dex to damage with daggers.)

I have yet to ever find a rule that specifically states a Bracers of Armor cannot gain special armor abilities and considering the description of bracers of armor states "It provides an armor bonus" (not just a random other name bonus) and "Functions just like armor," I as a DM usually allow special abilities to be attached.
So anyone curious about this rule needs to really ask their DM. It's not official, but there are no rules specifically against it.

I agree, and I allow them to be used as such too, but a lot of DMs don't.Siberys wrote:@GawainBS
