How does pummeling charge and janni rush interact with each other? plus master of many styles and pummeling charge


Rules Questions


Assuming of course that i am a master of many styles and i'm fusing janni style and pummeling style, if i charge and jump so i can use janni rush and also make use of pummeling charge, how many of the dices of the pummeling charge get afected by the "double the dices" of janni rush?

Also, if i am a master of many styles, can i take pummeling charge as soon as 2nd level? it specifies that i don't need to meet the prerrequisites of the style feat if i take it with the extra feat feature from the monk, but this is basically pounce from level 2 so i think i am reading something bad.


As far as I am aware, a charging monk with pummeling strike will double all his damage dice from every attack (since all of them are attacks made while charging) with janni rush.

I am aware that there is a faq for mounted combat/spirited charge, but with all my research, I have not seen any indication that it has anything to do with non-mounted combat.

Ah here is the faq:

Quote:

Mounted Combat: When making a charge while mounted, which creature charges? The rider or the mount?

Both charge in unison, suffer the same penalty to AC, the gaining the same bonus to the attack rolls and following all other rules for the charge. The mounted combat rules are a little unclear on this. Replace the third paragraph under the "Combat while Mounted" section on page 202 with the following text. Note that a "mounted charge" is synonymous with a "charge while mounted," and that when a lance is "when used from the back of a charging mount" it is during a mounted charge not when only the mount charges.

A mounted charge is a charge made by you and your mount. During a mounted charge, you deal double damage with your first melee attack made with a lance or with any weapon if you have Spirited Charge (or a similar effect), or you deal triple damage with a lance and Spirited Charge.

This change will be reflected in future printings of the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook

As to MoMS qualifying for Pummeling charge at 2nd level, that is also legit, but they give up quite a bit for it, I feel.
