Strike the Heartbeat [Ambush]
You can aim for vital organs by the sound they make.
Prerequisites: Sneak Attack 2d6, Listen 10 ranks, Blindfight, Hear the Unseen (http://realmshelps.dandello.net/cgi-bin/feats.pl?Hear_The_Unseen,CAd)
Benefit: As a move action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, you can attempt a DC 30 Listen check. If successful, you can not only pinpoint the location of all foes within 30 feet but can also hear the functions of organs, such as the beat of a heart or the expansion of lungs.
This benefit allows a rogue to use their sneak attack even if they cannot see their target and the target for that round is not considered to have concealment because of being unseen.
If you are deafened or within an area of silence, you can't use this feat. This feat does not work against perfectly silent opponents, such as incorporeal creatures.
Using this feat reduces your sneak attack damage by 1d6.
Special: As a further result of this feat you can determine how many creatures within 30 feet are of the type that can be sneak attacked.
