Hi all,

I was wondering if someone can explain this 'sneak attack' thing theifs gain upon installing HoW.

I have enabled it in the config, which I assume replaces backstabbing?

ATM my theif has a sneak attack value of -1
And when he attacks from a funny angle, I get:


Lethys- Sneak Attack: Crippling Strike (-1)
Enemy- Takes 9 slashing damage from Lethys (9 damage resisted)


What exactly does this mean, is the value of 1 a multiplier or a raw damage amount?

And, while Im asking...when it says 9 damage done and 9 damage resisted, does that mean no overall damage, or does it mean he tried to do 18 but half was resisted?
(Just something thats always bugged me)
