sneak pull with shurikens?

[Tann]

Given the terrible range of shurikens, store bought ones are 60 iirc, is it possible to sneak pull with them?

Doesn't seem like you could get enough distance between you and the other merbs before sneak dropped from being hit to not aggro the rest of the bunch.

Though I probably don't understand sneak pull mechanics fully. It lowers aggro range just like lull/harmony from behind, once your ranged attsck either registers as a hut or miss can you drop sneak to move back quickly or will that instantly restore aggro radius?

used to be able to not sure if they have changed anything recently other than screwing up pulls when a mob paths between you and target.

If you reveal yourself from sneak while the mob coming after you is still in social radius of other mobs, they will social agro. I sneak pull with shuriken often, just strafe+forward away from the mob after hitting range attack and you'll be able to get enough distance to be good.

Thanks I'll give it a go once I get high enough for them karana bandits. Also damn android spell check

Yes, sneak pulling with shurikens is very doable. If you are having trouble with mobs re-aggroing, make sure that your sneak is active. Also, strafing is faster than backing up/moving forward when in sneak- so I press Sneak, stand up, throw Shuriken, mouse turn, start to strafe away, turn off sneak. It gets trickier when trying to sneak pull in short distances, but it's definitely doable- just be persistent and you'll get a feel for it.

Sneak with shurikens is how the pros do it. Albee it, the poor pros who cant afford forged javelins.

Sneak doesn't break when you throw the suriken. If you're a rogue don't forget to turn off hide or it will break both hide and sneak.

Also face the mob when backing up initially so your dodge, party and riposte work. You only drop sneak if the land an attack.
