How does Horn of the Criosphinx feat work with the Pummeling Charge feat?


Rules Questions


How does Horn of the Criosphinx feat work with the Pummeling Charge feat? Does it give me 2x strenght bonus with every unarmed strike i make? even for the off hand attacks??


I think if you're a monk, yes. Otherwise it requires the use of a 2 handed weapon.

Grand Lodge

Well?


Thx for ur answers.^^

Ah, can I trade the strenght bonus of this feat for Dex bonus using the agile enhancement?

Grand Lodge

Likely, it only applies to the first attack, much like using a Lance, in combination with Pounce.


Are you sure? Pummeling strike/charge doesn't work exactly like a pounce, it looks more like a single attack.

And what about the Agile enhancement question?Can I apply dex instead strenght bonus when I use the Horn of the Criosphinx feat ?

Dark Archive

Highly unlikely. It specifies Strength.


Ok, so no Dex, and what about the charge? Can i add the double strenght bonus to all the attacks performed through the pummeling charge?


Well, it never specifies if it's just the first attack or not in the feat. When I give it to my barbarian and have him pounce, the GM has always ruled in my favor that it affects ALL attacks, not just the first.


Considering that Pummeling strike/charge IS a single attack (adding together all possible rolls into a single chunk of change) I would say you get 2x str on all rolls. While it's not specified it would make sense for the criosphinx feat to work like the lance FAQ - the idea is you're using momentum to do some extra up front damage, so if you swing a second time you wouldn't get it.
