Disarm

Question: Does the 'Disarm' quality on weapons stack with Improved disarm feat?

Further, what is the highest disarm CMB possible with 20 pt buy and core rules material at level 3?

Best I could come up with is +17 with a 20 STR Barbarian and the 'Strength Surge' Power while using a Flail .

To the first question, yes, the disarm quality stacks with the Improved Disarm feat; neither bonus is typed and they come from different sources.

You could add more by enchanting the weapon. A +1 flail gives that +1 bonus to disarm attempts made with the weapon. Same goes for any + to attack (bless, inspire songs, magic weapons, weapon focus, etc) with the weapon being used to make the maneuver, so a +1 flail doesn't give a bonus to an overrun or grapple check.

You'd need an int score of 13 though, I believe, and combat expertice also. Smart barbarian... Not that they are normally stupid, mind you ;-)

But at lvl 3, barbarian is probably king at this game. Over time, I'd asume the fighter would be able to take over that throne....
