Greater Trip Vicious Stomp Boar Style question


Rules Questions


Greater Trip (Combat)
You can make free attacks on foes that you knock down.
Prerequisites: Combat Expertise, Improved Trip, base attack bonus +6, Int 13.
Benefit: You receive a +2 bonus on checks made to trip a foe. This bonus stacks with the bonus granted by Improved Trip. Whenever you successfully trip an opponent, that opponent provokes attacks of opportunity.

Normal: Creatures do not provoke attacks of opportunity from being tripped.

Vicious Stomp (Combat)

You take advantage of the moment to brutally kick an enemy when he is down.
Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes, Improved Unarmed Strike.
Benefit: Whenever an opponent falls prone adjacent to you, that opponent provokes an attack of opportunity from you. This attack must be an unarmed strike.

Now if these to feats come into play do you get to add the Boar Style damage(2d6) for hitting the target twice with 2 unarmed attacks.

Shadow Lodge

Yes, if you hit with at least 2 unarmed attacks you deal boar style damage. They don't have to be your normal iterative attacks.

A question comes to my mind. It's not important enough to open another topic but:
The AOO from Greater Trip applies only when you tripped the opponent, not anybody or anything else (while Vicious Stomp applies here aswell).
BUT: Do you get the AOO from Greater Trip if you tripped him by other means? Like overrun with CMD+5

Knocking someone prone is different from Tripping. "Trip" is a specific Combat Maneuver, and as you said, there are other ways of making someone fall Prone.

If "making someone Prone" and "Tripping" were the same thing, then Greater Trip and Vicious Stomp shouldn't stack.

If "making someone Prone" and "Tripping" were the same thing, then the Punishing Kick Feat would have a size limit imposed on it, and it doesn't.

You can still get an Attack of Opportunity on your opponents you knock Prone via Vicious Stomp, which would stack with your Attack of Opportunity you get from Greater Overrun.
