[QUOTE="Gaiden, post: 162096, member: 103"] Fango - where did you get the idea that you can use iaijutsu focus more than once with the same weapon after you have drawn it. The text reads: if you attack a flatfooted opponent immediately after drawing a melee weapon. How do you interpret that to mean "if you attack a flatfooted opponent with a weapon you have drawn that round"? Immediately means right after you draw that weapon and only right after you draw that weapon. I stand corrected on the bluff. Of course, more than likely as I pointed out, bluffing will not be necessary as my test case was a bit biased being a character who devoted every feat to HP increases AND rolled max on hit points at every level. Believe me when I say that if this character catches any CR 4 opponent by surprise, that opponent is toast. The QttE feat is the obvious next feat for this character (or improved initiative), but this was a level 4 smack, not level 5 :). [/QUOTE]
