Disorienting Maneuver + Greater Trip Feats

[rogue-mage]

Just out of curiosity, would Disorienting Maneuver + Greater Trip feats give you +8 to Trip Combat Maneuver?

Because Greater Trip gives you a +4 and Disorienting Maneuver gives you a +4 Circumstance Bonus.

i think so ...
anything that give a blnus to "to hit" like flank, magic etc also add to CMB

[666bender]

also, make it a bit better :
take felling smash if you are a fighter and Disorienting
if you move through a foe + enter flank, you attack once than trip with :
+4 greater trip + 4 Disorienting + 2 flank + CMB.
not bad.

Thanks, it just seemed like a high bonus so I wanted to make sure.

Yes, assuming you also have Improved Trip.

Improved Trip: "You do not provoke an attack of opportunity when performing a trip combat maneuver. In addition, you receive a +2 bonus on checks made to trip a foe."

Greater Trip: "You receive a +2 bonus on checks made to trip a foe. This bonus stacks with the bonus granted by Improved Trip."

Disorienting Maneuver: "If you successfully use Acrobatics to tumble through an opponent's space, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus on attack rolls against that opponent until the start of your next turn. If you choose to make a trip attempt against that opponent, you gain a +4 circumstance bonus on your combat maneuver check. This bonus on trip also lasts until the start of your next turn."

Stacking: "Stacking refers to the act of adding together bonuses or penalties that apply to one particular check or statistic. Generally speaking, most bonuses of the same type do not stack."

That means bonuses of different types do stack.

Improved Trip and Greater Trip both grant untyped bonuses, so those bonuses will stack with the circumstance bonus from Disorienting Maneuver.
