Overrun?

[Vestrial]

So in the worst feat thread: http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2ox8t&page=1?Worst-feat-ever

Someone mentioned Elephant stomp as the worst feat ever:

It seems to give nothing, based on the way I always thought overrun worked. But looking at overrun again:

Quote:

As a standard action, taken during your move or as part of a charge, you can attempt to overrun your target, moving through its square.

Charge says:

Quote:

Charging is a special full-round action that allows you to move up to twice your speed and attack during the action.

Unlike disarm, sunder, trip, overrun says nothing about replacing an attack. Seems to me the way it's worded means you charge, attack, then roll your overrun. This would at least make elephant stomp make mechanical sense.

Yet you have the feat Charge Through that lets you overrun one opponent for "free".

Not very clear.

I think you miss the point of Charge Through. It gives a free overrun on a target on your way to the intended target of your charge, not the primary target.

Quote:

When making a charge, you can attempt to overrun one creature in the path of the charge as a free action. If you successfully overrun that creature, you can complete the charge.

So you're saying you could charge, hit the target and overrun it with a normal charge?

That's what the language seems to say.
