Hello All,
So I have been playing a Half-Orc Barbarian Character, and one of the rage powers that I have learned is that which is bestowed by the Lesser Beast Totem which gives me a 1d6 claw attack. Having a strength of 22 while raging and only being a level 3 character, being able to have two 1d6+6 attacks is a wonderful time. However, having seen this ability in enemies, I desire to learn the rend special ability (hit with both claws and deal claw damage plus strength times 1.5). The problem is that there does not seem to be a way to learn it as a PC.
I found the feat "rending claws" and a discussion that seems to agree that rending claws counts as a pre-requisite for the "rending fury" feat chain (link to forum post here: http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2mom9?Utimate-Combat-Rending-Fury-Feat-Chain), however I can't seem to determine if this means that I would get that much desired 1.5*strength damage since it is a rend attack in form even though it is not stated in the description.
If I could get any feedback on whether the strength damage is added or, alternatively, if there is another way to learn rend as a PC I would be very appreciative if someone could clue me in!
Thanks All!
