What about the other super important part of a sneak attack?
from the PHB:
"You don’t need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within 5 feet of it, that enemy isn’t incapacitated, and you don’t have disadvantage on the attack roll."
am I missing something or it's not in the game? because right now I think the only way to reliably use a sneak attack is by standing on a hill and use a bow because of Larian's stupid height advantage.
That's basically the "flanking" we talked about so often.
I would be all for it as a replacement for the stupid "free backstab" we used to have or the silly "hide as a free action without a check" we are left with now, but as far as I remember it was considered an optional rule, so many consider it divisive.
