[QUOTE="ARandomGod, post: 1871122, member: 17296"] If you want your point strengthened you don't have to go farther than the DMG, Duelist, where there is also an acrobatic charge. However, so they in your opinion slow down, or lose momentum after a jump. Do you apply this houserule to every jump, or only charges?
