War Pick of Backstabbing
Added 2024-09-09 15:30:27 +0000 UTCWeapon (war pick), rare (requires attunement)
This war pick features a brass hand holding a silvered knife. Its blade and pommel create the weapon's sharp and blunted ends, respectively. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. If you have advantage on the attack roll and hit, the target takes an extra 2d6 piercing damage from the attack; you can deal this extra damage only once per turn. If you're a rogue, you are proficient with this weapon, it has the finesse property for you, and the extra damage is considered to be Sneak Attack damage.
If you score a critical hit against a creature with this weapon, the target must also succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or become charmed by you for 1 minute. While it's charmed, the target regards you and your companions as friends. On its turn, the charmed target uses its action to attack any creature that's hostile toward you or your companions. The target can repeat the Wisdom saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. The effect ends early if you or your companions harm or threaten the charmed target.
Need a hand with that?

Very cool! Thanks for clarifying!

2024-09-12 11:40:13 +0000 UTC"and the extra damage is considered to be Sneak Attack damage" Does this mean a rogue can't apply their actual sneak attack damage if it's higher than this? And also they don't get the extra damage from this weapon like other classes do since it's overwriting a feature?
