I seem to remember there being a feat or some other way to treat your level as your BAB when doing Combat Maneuvers, as I am making a whip based bard focusing on Trip with combat reflexes.
Weapon Finesse > Agile Maneuvers for this, but I seem to remember there being a way to improve your BAB when making combat maneuvers.
I know that monks have pseudo full BAB and I know there is a magus arcana that does it, but I am neither of those classes. Is there anything I can do?

So I'm thinking as far as the build goes:
1) Lingering Performance, Weapon Finesse
3) Combat Reflexes
5) Weapon Focus (Wayfinder); Whip Mastery
7) Combat Expertise
9) Improved Trip
This is for a home game, stats as rolled are:
STR 9
DEX 18
CON 17
INT 16
WIS 14
CHA 19
By request, this character is meant to be skills/knowledge/support, so I favored the CRB bard, and INT over STR.
I do believe there is issue with the rules on whips and taking attacks of opportunity at a range though.

The whip is treated as a melee weapon with 15-foot reach, though you don't threaten the area into which you can make an attack.
An enemy that takes certain actions while in a threatened square provokes an attack of opportunity from you.
Since you don't threaten the square, you can't make an AOO.
