[QUOTE="Dausuul, post: 5812930, member: 58197"] The original "bag of rats" exploit went as follows: [B]1. [/B]Play a fighter (you don't [i]have[/i] to do this, but it makes it a lot easier to get the necessary feats). [B]2. [/B]Obtain the following:[LIST] [*]Great Cleave feat. [*]Whirlwind Attack feat. [*]Big sword. [*]One (1) bag of rats. Twenty rats will do. [/LIST][B]3. [/B]When you meet an enemy, henceforth designated "Roadkill," dump the rats on the ground and declare them your enemies. [B]4.[/B] Use Whirlwind Attack. [B]5.[/B] Whirlwind Attack lets you make one melee attack against every opponent within 5 feet. Target Roadkill and each rat. [B]6.[/B] For each opponent you reduce to zero hit points in melee, Great Cleave gives you a free melee attack against one opponent within 5 feet. [b]7.[/b] Assuming you hit 19 out of 20 rats with Whirlwind, you get 19 bonus attacks from Great Cleave. Direct them all at Roadkill. [b]8.[/b] Roadkill takes twenty attacks from you (1 from Whirlwind and 19 from Great Cleave), all at full attack bonus and full damage, and does its best impersonation of a gopher in a Cuisinart.
