Swinging more than once, ideas?


Advice


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I want to be able to swing a great sword more than once on my turn. How do I go about setting that up? My stats are 20/17/15/15/13/11. I'm a nagaji slayer.

Get to lvl 6 in a full BAB class, or have Haste cast on you (or imbibe a potion of it).


BAB?


BAB = Base Attack Bonus

CRB, Getting Started, Common Terms wrote:
Base Attack Bonus (BAB): Each creature has a base attack bonus and it represents its skill in combat. As a character gains levels or Hit Dice, his base attack bonus improves. When a creature's base attack bonus reaches +6, +11, or +16, he receives an additional attack in combat when he takes a full-attack action (which is one type of full-round action—see Combat).

PS: Slayer is a "full BAB class"


Get Cleave, you get a second attack on a adjacent target if you hit with the first attack. You can't take it at 1st level but you can at 2nd level via two handed combat style with a slayers talent. Or you pick power attack and grab cleave at 3rd level.


Blade of Mercy + Enforcer + Hurtful can work into a cleave build pretty easily.

Blade of Mercy can be a sticking point as it is a religion trait from an obscure source.

You could get two swings from Cleave and one from Hurtful by 4th level.

1 Power Attack
2 Ranger Style: Cleave
3 Enforcer
4 Combat Trick: Hurtful

You can actually pull this off fairly often too because you still have your move action to get into place to use Cleave. Won't really work well at high level, but if you are high level you can get multiple attacks easily.
