Boar Style / Jabbing Style

[Solumna]

I'm new to PFS and have a build in mind I was wondering if I could get some opinions on the base idea so here it goes,

1st level Human Sacred Fist
Feats
Weapon Finesse
Jabbing Style

2nd Level Master of Many Styles
Bonus Feat
Boar Style

When Unchained is released if it becomes PFS legal would probably take a 2nd level of monk at level 6 for the bonus feat and BAB otherwise all Sacred Fist.

I have seen few posts related to doing this and picking up pummeling style but this seems like a better idea to me so any feedback would be appreciated.

First issue is that you lack the prerequisite base attack for jabbing style. But other wise it would be an excellent combo.

[Solumna]

The prerequisite is Flurry of Blows which Sacred Fist gives.

[Owen K. C. Stephens]

It also has a base attack bonus +6 as a prerequisite, which is what Thvari is talking about.

[Solumna]

Its either one from what I understand, that's why jabbing dancer is 9 BAB or monk level 5 or am I reading incorrectly?

[Thvari]

nope. in the feat text there is a comma after the base attack requirement. I had a similar plan for a character of mine.

[Solumna]

Then why bother stating that Jabbing Dancer can be taken at 5th level monk but still says you need a BAB of 9. Sorry Im just trying to understand the writing.

Jabbing Dancer (Combat)
Prerequisite(s): Dodge, Improved Unarmed Strike, Jabbing Style, Mobility; base attack bonus +9, brawler level 5th, or monk level 5th.

Prerequisite(s): Improved Unarmed Strike; base attack bonus +6, brawler's flurry class feature, or flurry of blows class feature.

It's the power of the semicolon. Jabbing Style requires IUS, and one of BAB +6 OR Brawler's Flurry OR Flurry of Blows.

[Imbicatus]

Pummeling Style is still stronger than Jabbing+Boar due to DR and crit effects, especially once you get Improved Critical.

On the plus side, You can stack two-weapon rend with boar and jabbing styles, but it's likely not worth it unless you are a brawler, ranger, or slayer.

[Solumna]

Any other Style you would recommend to got with Pummeling since i would have Fuse Style's anyway?

[Imbicatus]

Dragon Style is the classic match for Pummeling for being able to charge through allies and difficult terrain.

[Owen K. C. Stephens]

To be clear:
Jabbing Style has this prerequisite line:
Prerequisites: Improved Unarmed Strike; base attack bonus +6, brawler's flurry class feature, or flurry of blows class feature.

Improved Unarmed Strike is a prereq for everyone.
There is then a semicolon.
Of the items after the semicolon (base attack bonus +6, brawler's flurry class feature, or flurry of blows class feature) you must have one (it's A, B, or C).
