Talk:Death attack

From NWNWiki

[edit] Clarification

• What does it mean that it "functions similarly to a Sneak Attack in that if the target is not in combat they become victim to the death attack"? Is it basically a sneak attack that you can only make happen if the victim is not fighting anything (basically, your first attack on someone not in combat) or are there additional situations where it does damage with the chance of paralysis (like maybe when the victim is knocked down)?

• The Xd6 from death attack works the same at sneak attack bonus damage and going was the same immunities, but the only way you are going to paralyze someone with death attack is if your target is flat-footed.

• The extra d6 function as does Sneak Attack's but the target has to not be in combat at all for Death Attack's paralysis to kick in.

Apparently 1.66 patch made it so that the paralysis is not prevented by mind affecting immunity.. how about freedom? Would charcters who have freedom be immune to the paralysis of death attack? Bangolot
