Added Snap Shot.

| Jan 23, 2016 at 7:35 | comment | added | Lunarcy | It would clarify your answer a bit more. By referencing Snap Shot as the feat to allow providing a flanking bonus, it clears up any confusing when they look at Improved Snap Shot which just increases the threat area provided by Snap Shot by 5'. | |
| Jan 23, 2016 at 2:02 | comment | added | DuckTapeAl | @Lunarcy Yes, that's true. That's what I'm saying when I say "The only exception to the rule that you can't flank with a ranged weapon is the case where you threaten squares with a ranged weapon". Snap Shot is a feat that lets you threaten (and thus flank) with a ranged weapon. I mention Improved Snap Shot specifically because it lets you flank at a distance greater than 5 feet. Are you saying that I should note that in my answer? | |
| Jan 22, 2016 at 23:45 | comment | added | Lunarcy | Under Snap Shot You threaten squares within 5' of you, thus you satisfy the criteria of threatening a creature within that range allowing you to provide a flanking bonus to any qualifying allies. The base rule that you only threaten squares you can make a melee attack against is superseded by the wording of the feat. | |

Clarified ranged flanking exception, added note about the non-difference between flanking and gaining a flanking bonus. Added quote from a supporting example.
