[QUOTE="Latsu, post: 6351804, member: 6778072"] I'm leaning towards trying to obtain pounce and getting improved trip, it's my understanding that tripping is one attack so could you not pounce, trip with the first attack, and then wail on the poor guy underneath you? also doesn't combat expertise require INT 13 or 15? not too much of a gripe but I'm trying to minimize the MAD I want to be able to move quickly or at least base speed although I would like better, also cleric BaB isn't phenomenal so wouldn't that hurt a tripper/pouncer? I know that with he right buffs a cleric always outshines the fighter but then I'd be starved for feats to make the build, and at low level it wouldn't be that good (trying to have it be consistent) So 30' or more speed with anything above 50' probably unnecessary, pounce, spinning halberd with trip attack on the first attack, attack of opportunity when the poor sap stands up, full attack with -5 power attack and +unnecessary damage, repeat on his buddies I'd like to keep full base attack except the hit I take at first level for tripping and getting the most out of pouncing, what about racial paragon 3 fighter 2 with sneak attack variant? the racial paragon bonus feat would help to offset those from lost from using the variant, for my adaptive skill I could take tumble and max it so I can take the skill trick Acrobatic Backstab at 9th level? it allows you to tumble through an enemy square and treat him a flatfooted for one attack, combined with pounce, this would also make me slightly les of a one trick pony as I could flank with another character when charging isn't an option first attack gets sneak attack, second attack trips, third attack with haft also dodge bonuses stack and I'd be going light armor then onto mithral medium, dodge bonuses stack so I'm considering trying to get those somehow, spinning halberd and dodge get me +1 each and if I get hasted armor I could get another, is trying to get a lot of these a waste of time? I know AC is only important to an extent but it is important oh and please explain to me shock trooper, I know it gives you 2 trips for free when you bull rush one guy into another but how situational is the feat? it seems like its for fighters who want a trip ability but don't want improved trip [/QUOTE]
