Tactical Advantage feat - Dragon 335


Dragon Magazine General Discussion


Attention Zherog:

When you say "you may add your favored enemy bonus on attack rolls and opposed checks made to perform trip, disarm, and bull rush attacks", does this mean:

1. You may add your favored enemy bonus on (attack rolls) and (opposed checks made to perform trip, disarm, and bull rush attacks)
or
2. You may add your favored enemy bonus on attack rolls (and opposed checks) made to perform trip, disarm, and bull rush attacks

In other words, does this feat grant your favored enemy bonus to ALL attack rolls against the specific favored enemy you chose when you take the feat, or just those attack rolls envolving bull rush attacks against the specific favored enemy you chose when you take the feat (disarm and trip attacks only use opposed rolls, not attack rolls)?

This feat only adds to the attack roll of Trip and Disarm attacks, while adding to the opposed roll of Bull Rush and the second step of a Trip attack. The attack roll made for a disarm attempt is an opposed roll. You do not get the bonus twice.

Yep - what JB said. The intention is to add to those specific manoeuvers, not to all attack rolls.
