Feint and CMD


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

The rules for feint state:

Quote:
If successful, the next melee attack you make against the target does not allow him to use his Dexterity bonus to AC (if any).

So feinting can affect the AC. How about CMD?

As AC penalties apply to CMD I woud say yes, it applies to CMD.

From the PRD -

A creature can also add any circumstance, deflection, dodge, insight, morale, profane, and sacred bonuses to AC to its CMD. Any penalties to a creature's AC also apply to its CMD. A flat-footed creature does not add its Dexterity bonus to its CMD.
