HOW DID HE SURVIVE!

Gruesome Cut Feat 18

Rogue
Prerequisite: Critical Cut

---

There may be no surviving this. When you succeed on an attack on a target with the off-guard condition, you can reduce the sneak attack damage by 1d6, 2d6, 3d6, or 4d6 and the target gains Painful 1, Painful 2, Painful 3, or Painful 4 (DC 15 flat check reduce by 1). If you choose Painful 3 or greater the target must attempt Fortitude save against your class DC. On a success, the target only gains Painful 3 if you choose Painful 4 or Painful 2 if you choose Painful 3. On a critical success, the target only gains Painful 2. If a target has the Painful condition, it can increase up to Painful 4, but to go beyond Painful, the target must attempt a Fortitude save as above..
