New Ranger Combat Style: Skirmish


Homebrew and House Rules


Ranger Combat Style: Skirmish

2nd level: Mobility, Spring Attack, Fleet, Acrobatic Steps

6th level: Improved Vital Strike, Lunge

10th level: Greater Vital Strike

Notice: this selection of feats only makes sense when Spring Attack can be combined with Vital Strike. I think there is no official ruling for this yet.

What do you think?
Is getting the Vital Strike feats early too powerfull?
Would you add/replace feats on the list?


I don't really see a reason to grant Improved Vital Strike any earlier than you usually get it, getting it as a bonus feat is good enough. You could also add in a couple of feats, you seem a bit short as it is:

2nd level: Mobility, Spring Attack, Fleet, Acrobatic Steps

6th level: Vital Strike, Lunge, Wind Stance

10th level: Improved Vital Strike, Lightning Stance

I'd just like to say that I really like the idea behind a skirmish combat style, it completely takes away the need to add in a Scout equivalent for Pathinder.


The idea came up first in -->this thread.
