Does anyone have any suggestions for helping large groups of low level enemies do something other than fish for 20s against decently leveled PCs (say 5+ levels of difference) and aren't dependant on money (because this will obviously be looted) or high level allies?
I can think of Aid Another, Freebooter, Bardic Music (including the many archetypes that grant it) and Bless. Any other suggestions?
Aid Another, especially if there is a significant size difference between the players and whatever they are fighting. Bigger isn't always better. DC10 check for a +2 bonus that stacks, go with 2 smaller creatures per square and your looking at +14 to hit for one of them, give half the little guys reach weapons and your party is in deep manure. Don't see any reason it wouldn't work on a CMB check either, most PC's don't fight very well on their backs. Doesn't cost any feats and is available to every creature they encounter.
