Maneuver Master


Rules Questions


Flurry of Maneuvers (Ex) Could a character with this exchange a maneuver for an attack?


No, unless you know of a maneuver that states that you can exchange it for an attack.

Certain maneuvers can be used in place of melee attacks, but I know of none that permit the reverse.

Maintaining a grapple allows you to select an option to damage, but you can only maintain after you successfully initiate the grapple.

Is not the bolded what he was asking?

Ahhh, I see that you can interpret what he is asking in two different ways. And, yes, I agree with your answer


I wrote that wrong. Maneuver for an attack.... I meant.... ok so as it stands only if you are grappling.


Some Maneuvers deliver attacks. Great Trip delivers the MM Monk an Attack of Opportunity, 2 if he also takes Vicious Stomp, and usually a 3rd if he tries to stand back up.

Also, a Disarmed Opponent may well start provoking attacks of opportunity, depending on which of his poor list of options he chooses.


If you're asking if you can replace the normal attacks in your FoM sequence with maneuvers, that follows the standard rules for everyone. So a FoM with two iterative attacks and one maneuver can use any maneuver for his 'one maneuver', even if that maneuver normally requires a standard action; but he could replace either or both of his iterative attacks with a trip, disarm, or sunder because anyone can do that. Mind you that only your 'one bonus maneuver' gets full-BAB from FoM until you hit lvl 3 for Maneuver Training that lets you use full-BAB for all maneuvers.
