other wise double sneak attack ... have a feat for it.

Can you explain what a double sneak attack is and what feat that allows it?  I can't search & find double sneak attack.

I am not aware of a way to get two sneak attacks in one turn. I am fairly confident Nightmorph is wrong.

 

There is a way, actually, the 17th level feature for the Scout Subclass (XGtE).

Sudden Strike

Starting at 17th level, you can strike with deadly speed. If you take the Attack action on your turn, you can make one additional attack as a bonus action. This attack can benefit from your Sneak Attack even if you have already used it this turn, but you can’t use your Sneak Attack against the same target more than once in a turn.

 

But not a lot of Rogues will see 17th level, let alone with the Scout subclass.

 never Siad turn for this one. that's a different subject. I said you can get double sneak attack.

Zhentarim Tactics 

 

What is that?  Is that the feat or is it the book a double sneak is from?   

Zhentarim Tactics is a feat from Heroes of Faerun. It allows making an opportunity attack against a creature as a Reaction when they hit you with a melee attack. It does not allow you to use Sneak Attack twice in the same turn, but it does potentially allow you to use Sneak Attack on someone else's turn. This could allow you to use it twice in the same round (though still not twice on the same turn).

"Double Sneak Attack" is not a thing from a book. It's a misunderstanding Nightmorph seems to have about how Sneak Attack and Zhentarim Tactics work.

 

I never said once per turn on this one I was correcting him saying once per equals any ones turn which would be part of the round so in this case I am right and you misunderstood me . ill grant ya i could have used better verbiage. 

To be clear, when I said you had a misunderstanding, I was referring to post #8 in this thread, in which you said that u2ng's explanation of how the spellcasting rules work was incorrect, because "other wise double sneak attack would not work". It seemed like you had misunderstood something, since u2ng's post was entirely correct and had nothing to do with Sneak Attack.

 so you don't believe in rounds either?

Quote from AelenSagegazerDnD >>

So according to the one spell slot a turn rule, a player can not use two spell slots in the same turn. The example given in the PHB is that a player can't use a spell slot in both Action and Bonus Action. According the new Sage Advice, if a Reaction is used during your own turn, you must follow the one spell slot per turn rule. But what about when you don't do this? For instance, can you cast Counterspell using a spell slot in your Reaction when during your Action you used a spell slot to cast Fireball?

 

This is perfectly acceptable.

Just remember that in this game any feature or effect that occurs or is restricted to "once per turn" does not actually mean once per round, nor does it mean once per turn only on your own turn.  "Once per turn" means once per anyone's turn.  So, you can cast one spell with a spell slot on your turn.  Then, as soon as it becomes someone else's turn you can again cast one spell with a spell slot on that turn, and then as soon as it becomes a third creature's turn you can again cast one spell with a spell slot on that turn, and so on.

 this is incorrect. other wise double sneak attack would not work .and it does they even have a feat for it.

 

The above description of the mechanic is 100% correct.  It's not helpful to resurrect an old thread to make an inaccurate claim like this.

 I know your trying to troll me but I'll take the bait. what i said was correct what you said was incorrect its ok to be wrong . once per turn does not mean once per anyone's turn otherwise there would say once per round. its ok to be wrong .

You seem to have completely misread the original post for the thread as well as the above response to it.  The OP is asking if you are allowed to cast a Reaction spell with a spell slot when it is NOT their turn after having used their action on their own turn to cast a spell with a spell slot.  As stated above, this is perfectly acceptable.  The follow-up description of how the mechanic works in order to help explain why it is acceptable is 100% accurate.

This is false.  It's the other way around.  It's ok to be wrong.

I have no idea what you mean by that or what you're trying to say.

If a rule says you can do something "once per turn", it means "once per turn", not "once per round"; it can happen multiple times per round on different turns. That's the core of what u2ng was saying, which you said was incorrect. You are mistaken about that.

I don't know what else to tell you.  Repeatedly making false claims about extremely core mechanics for the game such as how turns and rounds function during combat is detrimental to a thread which was already fully resolved.  Perhaps it would help to quote a few of the rules on the subject:

In certain situations—particularly combat—the action is more structured, and everyone takes turns.

A Reaction is an instant response to a trigger of some kind, which can occur on your turn or on someone else’s.

Once everyone has taken a turn, the fight continues to the next round if neither side is defeated.

Take Turns. Each participant in the battle takes a turn in Initiative order. When everyone involved in the combat has had a turn, the round ends. Repeat this step until the fighting stops.

On your turn, you can move a distance up to your Speed and take one action.

So, as explained a few times now, a restriction of "once per turn" in this game has nothing to do with it having to be your turn.  This restriction applies to anyone's turn.  So, if you do something on someone else's turn that has this restriction then you cannot do that thing again until that turn is over.  As soon as it is the next creature's turn then the restriction is lifted and you can do that thing again.  

Once again (yet again), the post that you keep on claiming was wrong was actually 100% correct.  Hopefully these explanations have been helpful.

 once per turn is once per turn . once per round is once per round . this is where it seems your confused. If it was once per round it would say that .because a reaction can occur on some else's turn that is the part you're not acknowledging. once again if it was once per round it would say that.

What in the world??  Where are you getting this from?  No one has made any claim whatsoever that once per turn means the same thing as once per round.  I have said exactly the opposite in every single post in this thread.  I will no longer tolerate you claiming that I am "confused" about this subject.  Please refrain from doing so again.

f the rule were meant to apply on every creature’s turn, it would say “once per round.” In the 2024 rules, a turn is the part of the round when a single creature acts, while a round is the full cycle in which every creature takes a turn. Because these terms have specific definitions, “once per turn” cannot mean “once on anyone’s turn.” It refers specifically to the turn of the creature currently in que.

If there are five creatures in the combat then there will be five separate turns taken during each round. And if you have an ability that says "once per turn" then you can use it once on any of those five turns. Which is precisely what @u2ng and the rest have said (both tonight and 12 months ago).

This is the second thread tonight where you have necroed a thread that's more than a year old only to post incorrect/irrelevant statements (poorly/confusingly worded ones at that). Might I suggest that you take a step back, have a breath and then contribute in a subject/thread where it is actually useful?

You seem determined to misunderstand what someone else posted so that you can be right and they can be wrong. If you take a moment to re-read the post you're talking about, you'll realize that you are both saying the same thing, no one is saying the incorrect thing you think they're saying, and there was no need to dig up this dead thread at all.

 well, that is where you're wrong. this will be useful to people who don't want to be misled. once per turn is once on your turn not the entire round are you being obtuse or do you actually not understand? . perhaps you should take your own advice.

You are the one posting misleading information, whether you intend to or not. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you misread up2ng's post before disagreeing with it. Read it again, go back and read the original if you like. It has not been edited as of the time I am posting this. up2ng said that once per turn restrictions reset with each creature's turn. up2ng provided an example with spell slots since that is the point of the thread. This is 100% correct.

You said that up2ng was incorrect and that double sneak attack was allowed. How is anyone supposed to take this other than as you saying that you can make two or more sneak attacks on your turn? (You cannot except in very rare cases and Zhentarim Tactics is not one of them).

The mistake was yours; you can double down or own the error.
