Sweet thanks everyone, I figured it worked that way but I wanted to get s better consensus. The combo works!


Not gonna go into detail about why it's important, but is it possible to overrun a target already prone since a prone character still threatens the areas around it and you can't move through their space without making acrobatics checks?


Thanks Chess, but GM is asking for official clarification from a designer or thereabouts. Doubtful Jason B. will be back to answer this though.

Hey there all,

Couple of notes. Generally speaking, when reading feats, the descriptive sentence at the very beginning is just that, descriptive. It is not generally rules text.

As for the Vital Strike issue... just roll the damage dice for the weapon twice. Everything else is as normal. If you normally deal 1d8+4 with a longsword, you would deal 2d8+4 with a longsword using Vital Strike.

Vital Strike is an attack action, btw, which is a standard action. You cannot use it as part of a full-attack action.

Sorry to necro this, but I'm wondering if I gain the ability to take multiple standard actions (such as the Monk of the Four Winds archetype) can I Vital Strike on those additional standard actions as well?

It seems like I can, but I want to make sure the rules support it before I bring this build to my GM.


If copies are still available i'd like one :D, one of my players was just about to create a new character and hunter was one of his choices.
