Best way to bounce like a goblin?


Advice

Sovereign Court

So I came across the feat Roll With It and I really want to use it with a new character. Creation guidelines are anything Paizo with a 20pt build and I would like to avoid being a summoner but I have no qualms with using Racial Heritage (Goblin) to gain access to the feat. I don't know what level I will be starting at but any help with the build would be appreciated.

I was a bit put off by the staggered bit of the feat until I realized that I can still charge while staggered which is really nice. Then I realized that if I managed to get pounce somehow I would be making full attacks while staggered which is even better. So I think the best build to use in conjunction with Roll With It is a build that can do some cool stuff (or decent damage output) on a charge with no mount. I'm open to any other suggestions though, so please hit me with your best shot...

Also, for those that don't want to click the link above:

Roll With It wrote:

Prerequisite: Goblin, Acrobatics 1 rank.

Benefit: If you are struck by a melee weapon you can try to convert some or all of that damage into movement that sends you off in an uncontrolled bouncing roll. To do so, you must make an Acrobatics check (DC = 5 + the damage dealt from the attack) as an immediate action. If you succeed in this check, you take no damage from the actual attack but instead convert that damage into movement with each point equating to 1 foot of movement.

For example, if you would have taken 6 points of damage, you would convert that into 6 feet of movement. You immediately move in a straight line in a direction of your choice this number of feet (rounded up to the nearest 5-foot-square), halting if you reach a distance equal to your actual speed. If this movement would make you strike an object or creature of your size or larger, the movement immediately ends, you take 1d4 points of damage, and fall prone in that square. This involuntary movement provokes attacks of opportunity normally if you move through threatened squares, but does not provoke an attack of opportunity from the creature that struck you in the first place.

You are staggered for 1 round after you attempt to use this feat, whether or not you succeed.

Edit: As an after thought Panther Claw and Panther Style might be kind of cool to use with this too... don't know quite how to work that in but hey, thats what you guys are here for.

Shameless Bump!

Also, I was thinking an Aasimar or Human (with the adopted trait and Enlightened Warrior) Barbarian with levels of Unarmed Fighter or Monk. That way I can get Panther Claw pretty early as well as a nice bonus to speed (+10 from Monk at third, +10 from Barbarian at first).


yea, a goblin barbarian with the full beast totem line and pounce is pretty much the go to. inv rager and urban barb for more DR and extra dex from rage, then get an amulet enchanted for dex to damage, and good to go.

can get a bite attack as a gob too
