Does Pummeling Style combine with anything?

[Ravingdork]

Can you use Pummeling Style with feats like Quick Bull Rush?

[Squiggit]

You know everyone talking about what weapons work that that's not what the OP asked? He was asking about stuff like haste and TWF.

Which, as written: Yes, haste and TWF do apply, as they modify how many attacks you can make with a full attack and Pummeling Style lets you make attack rolls equal to the number you'd make if you were full attacking.

Pretty sure Quick Bull rush is out though, since Pummeling Style is a unique full round action based on full attacks rather than a true full attack ( so you don't actually have the attacks to replace).

So I have a Monk/Magus. While I don't think Spell Combat could be used in conjunction with Pummeling style, what is the effect on touch spells with a held charge - do they trigger at all?And how many attacks go off on something like Chill Touch -- one, or one per attack?

It never mentions unarmed strikes

Benefit: When using Pummeling Style, you can charge

and make a Pummeling Style attack at the end of your
charge as part of the charge action.

Pummeling Style (Combat, Style)
You collect all your power into a single vicious and
debilitating punch.

@ BNW et al.,

We already have a very active thread on this related question going over <here>. To keep the discussion (& FAQ flagging!) sorted and in one place, why don't we move this branch of it over there?

Thanks!

The Pummeling charge feat, with Horn of the Criosphinx, and Dragon Ferocity. Unarmed strike damage plus STR x2.5 for all attacks on the charge? If you work it right, you can get this psuedo-pounce at Level 8, maybe earlier (not certain the build, it is late and I am tired.)

Probably not. Remember, pummeling style is a style feat, so you can't use dragon style with it (unless you are a MoMS monk; either you are only using 3/4 BAB regular full attacks, or you only dipped to mix styles, and thus you delay when you can qualify for this feat)

Master of many styles (monk archtype) lets you use multiple styles at the same time and get style feats as your bonus feats without meeting the prerequisites. Have fun with pummeling charges at level 2.

Yes and no.

With moms 2 you can, BUT you need 2rounds to setup since you need 2swift actions to open both dragon and pummeling.
You need moms 8 to open multiple styles simultaneously with 1 swift

Now sure, from second round you can do that BUT what monk isn't in melee reach already in two rounds?

[Cao Phen]

Remember that if you grab Combat Style Master, you can automatically start with one of the Styles activated before combat.

[shroudb]

Yes, but good luck getting that at lvl 2^^

Usually for moms2/x it comes at lvl9, 5-6 for brawler

Hi! I'm new to Pathfinder but have loved what I've played so far. Anyway, I came to this board because Pummeling Style seems very interesting to me! I understand that it combines all the damage potential of all your attacks into one giant damaging attack (I'm guessing for the purpose of overcoming DR and combining crit potential). What I am curious about is how this combines with Attacks of Opportunity. Especially in tandem with Pummeling Bully, greater trip, and viscous stomp. Are these attacks of opportunity initiated by trip (which occurs still during the round you pummel) considered a part of the combined damage potential of pummeling style? Or are these attacks of opportunity separate from the pummel?

separate from the pummel.

as far as i can tell:

you can't do normal trip attempts as part of bulling strike. this is because pummeling strike says that

Quote:

Make a number of rolls equal to the number of attacks you can make with a full attack

you don't make many attacks, you do many rolls. You do a SINGLE attack.

Now, IF this attack hits (and i assume it always does because even if 1 of the rolls is successful then it is a hit) and you have pummeling bully it can trigger.

If you trip your opponent with pummeling bully, then both greater trip and vicious stomp will trigger for another 2 (seperate) attacks.

Thank you kindly!
