Any help would be appreciated

Thanks.

P.S. if you know of a weapon enhancement or prestige class, theat would be handy as well.

...those are all that I am aware of.

04-08-07, 03:39 PM in Dungeonscape, rogues have the option of giving up Trapsense to be able to deal 1/2 their sneak attack damage to undead.-ans anything else that would normally be immune to sneak attack.

04-08-07, 05:44 PM The augment crystal from MIC is your best bet. Allows full sneak attack etc. against undead.

And while this isn't quite what you're looking for, there's an alternate class feature in Player's Handbook II for Rogues that allows them to give up uncanny dodge (gaining it at 8th level and never gaining Improved Uncanny Dodge) to sacrifice sneak attack damage for a -5 penalty to AC for a round at her choice, with the AC penalty being allowed on creatures that are normally immune to sneak attack.
