Hi guys,
I'm currently playing a goliath barbarian fighter with the following feats (amogst others, some from races of stone):
Improved Bullrush
Knockback
Rampaging Bullrush
With these feats if I score a hit while using the power attack feat, I get a free bullrush attempt where I don't move with the target. With rampaging bullrush if I take a -4 on the strength check and the oppenent is knocked prone. You need powerful build and rage ability, but this seems like a rather neat combo. With rage, powerful build and improved bullrush and the fact I get 2 for one on my power attack included as a bonus to the bullrush check (due to using a twohanded weapon and listed under the knockback feat) it seems like there won't be many who can stand up to me.
I was just wondering if anyone else has had experiences with either this chain or bullrush in general. It seems a nice alternative to combat reflexes/improved trip/reach/knockdown, but without any MAD needed for dexterity. Its all strength which means little impact on damage output (I've had to delay weapon specialisation greatclub at this point, but I'm headed towards shocktrooper and 3 mountain style from CW).
I wonder if they're going to give overrun a makeover sometime....
