Is there any way to get greater trip...

[Taason the Black]

With an Int of 8 short of taking multi levels in flowing monk or getting the int up?

I score improved trip with lv 1 Flowing monk.

The answer is no. Improved trip is the only feat you will get as a monk that does not require you to have the prerequisites.

you could do it with maneuver master, right? i assume that their bonus feats work like normal monk bonus feats in terms of not needing the prereq's, so you'd could get it at 6th lvl

Yes but that is investing 5 more levels into a class that I dont want to go. Too much cost for 1 feat.

Didnt know if there was some item out there that pulled it off, etc. So many things like that I dont recall.

An Oracle of Battle with Maneuver Mastery gains improved trip at 7 and greater trip at 11.

I believe there's a Magus Archetype that gives Combat Expertise as a bonus feat at level one. ....but I just checked, and Greater Trip still requires you to have 13 INT. So, nevermind ;\

That you cannot get an intelligent maneuver with low intelligence or that you can't get Greater Trip with a monk without Combat Expertise?

I'm torn here, because your character is only a few IQ points sharper than Forrest Gump and that's not a good idea for anyone depending on clever maneuvers.

On the flip side, I do agree that it sucks that a monk can get Improved Trip, but can't get Greater Trip without taking a feat they otherwise have no great use for, and having stats that make them even more MAD than they already are.
