Sneak Attack — Nai Yan Fei's Strikes deal an additional 4d6 precision damage to Off-Guard creatures.
WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLANDA frontline that ties down other threats lets this precision striker isolate a single target and land Sneak Attack damage while it's Off-Guard.
SnareLANDA controller that keeps a target Off-Guard or restrained ensures the precision damage from Sneak Attack lands every round instead of only after a successful flank.
CrasherLANDA burst attacker follows up on a target already Enfeebled and slowed by Debilitating Strike, converting the debuff into a faster kill.
PUNISHES
✖ low Fortitude✖ isolated single target✖ standing still
Avoid stacking another Flanker; both are competing for the same flanking position against one priority target.
