Question About Archer Feint Trick Shot.


Rules Questions


Just a quick question about it, when I use the archer's Feint Trick Shot, do I use my CMB or Bluff skill for the check? And is my DEX applied to the check at all?


When using the Archer's feint trick shot, you would use the bluff skill for the check, as feinting is not a combat maneuver and thus doesn't use your CMB. A strict reading of the text would mean that you don't take the -4 to the check for attacking ranged.

For other commenters, Vega is referring to the third level ability of the archer archetype of the fighter class:

Trick Shot:
At 3rd level, an archer can choose one of the following combat maneuvers or actions: disarm, feint, or sunder. He can perform this action with a bow against any target within 30 feet, with a –4 penalty to his CMB. Every four levels beyond 3rd, he may choose an additional trick shot to learn. These maneuvers use up arrows as normal.
