Your Sneak Attack can be used on attacks made with any simple melee weapon that you are wielding in one hand.

At 6th level, you can choose two more of your proficiencies (in skills or with thieves' tools) to gain this benefit.

Beginning at 1st level, you know how to strike subtly and exploit a foe's distraction. Once per turn, you can deal an extra 1d6 damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll. The attack must use a finesse or a ranged weapon.

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.

The amount of the extra damage increases as you gain levels in this class, as shown in the Sneak Attack column of the Rogue table.

During your rogue training you learned thieves' cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows you to hide messages in seemingly normal conversation. Only another creature that knows thieves' cant understands such messages. It takes four times longer to convey such a message than it does to speak the same idea plainly.

In addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves' guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.

3rd-level and higher rogue optional feature

You learn maneuvers that are fueled by special dice called superiority dice

Maneuvers. You learn two maneuvers of your choice from among those available to the Battle Master archetype. Many maneuvers enhance an attack in some way. You can useonly one maneuver per attack.

You learn one additional maneuver of your choice at 6th, 9th, 13th, and 17th level. Each time you learn a new maneuver, you can also replace one maneuver you know with a different one.

Superiority Dice. Instead of having a pool of superiority dice, you draw from the damage dice used by your Sneak Attack feature. At any point on your turn where you haven't used your Sneak Attack feature yet, you can choose to subtract 2d6 from your Sneak Attack dice pool, as long as it has at least 2d6 dice remaining in it, which lasts until the start of your next turn. You then gain a single superiority die, a d6, which can be expended to use a maneuver before it disappears at the start of your turn.

As an additional option, the DM may grant you a single superiority die, a d6, which is meant to be used on maneuvers outside of combat or the normal turn order. You regain this die after you finish a short or long rest. You gain another superiority die at 7th level and one more at 15th level.

Saving Throws. If a maneuver you use requires your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver's effects, the saving throw DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice).
