Paragon Path

Prerequisite: Rogue class.

Daggermaster Paragon Path Features

Daggermaster’s Action (11th level): You can spend an action point to turn a normal hit with a dagger into a critical hit. (This would replace the one above)

Dagger Precision (11th level): You can score critical hits with daggers on a roll of 18–20.

Dagger Advantage (16th level): When you score a critical hit with a dagger, the target grants combat advantage to you until the end of your next turn. If you are hidden, you remain hidden.
