Ok, so I was working on a build for PFS (it's what I do sometimes when I'm bored), and decided to try my hands on a Two-Weapon Fighting Ranger.
I'm going on the assumption that I can wield a one-handed weapon and a shield, and have my off-hand attack as being with armor spikes, since that was allowed in 3.5 (and I'm aware of some rules debates on armor spikes; I don't feel like debating that in this thread. If it becomes an issue at the game table, I'll either just play it the way the GM says so or just play a different character).
I came across the Spiked Destroyer and Quick Bull Rush feats, and began to wonder if it'll be worth it. By level 9, I should have:
Power Attack, Improved Bull Rush, Greater Bull Rush, Quick Bull Rush, Two-Weapon Fighting, Improved Two-Weapon Fighting, Spiked Destroyer.
The idea being, when appropriate, substitute my highest attack for a bull rush. If it succeeds, I push the target 5 feet and all my allies get a free AoO on the target, and I can use a swift action to make an attack with my armor spikes. Then, I proceed to make the rest of my attacks on the target.
Even though I can probably do that every round if I wanted, I figured it'd mostly depend on the situation.
Just don't know if it's worth it, so figured I'd ask around for other people's opinions.
