Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Why is Sneak Attack capped at 5d6?

I assume it's an attempt at balance?

I've leveled 3 rogues to 12 and all three cap at 5d6 SA dice. By 5e rules, they all should have gone to 6d6 at level 11 but BG3 caps them at 5. Has Larian ever shared why?
