I think I would limit it to 8 squares/targets, so the smallest % would be 12.5%. You could have a simple chart printed up of the odds based on number of targets to keep things smooth in game.#2:It might be interesting to add to the Feint option the following way: As a standard action you may move up to your movement. Opponents who threaten the initial square you occupy must win in a contested Sense Motive check vs your Bluff check or be denied the AoO from your movement. Both sides gain a bonus to this skill check equal to thier BAB.This would mesh with Improved Feint that changes to action type to a Move actoin... allowing a skilled bluffer to Withdraw and then perform a standard action...</blockquote>
