[RPG] Do rogues get sneak attack damage added to attacks made outside their turn

dnd-5eopportunity-attackroguesneak-attack

PHB says 'once per turn,' so, it would seem that a Rogue with Sentinel, for example, could "consistently" deal Sneak attack twice per round (whether the enemy triggers an OA or the melee weapon attack provided by the Feat).

So, can rogues deal sneak attack damage with any weapon attack outside their turn? (obv. one that meets the standard requirements–finesse, adv or adj ally)

Best Answer

Yes!

The verbiage 1/turn definitely allows for the use of Sneak Attack out of turn for the rogue if they somehow get a reaction attack (either granted by an ally or by an opportunity attack).

Note that this basically limits them to 2x per round since you only get one reaction. But yes absolutely. Note that all of the normal restrictions on SA apply, they have to have advantage or an adjacent ally, and they have to be attacking with a finesse or ranged weapon.
