I was wondering when calculating CMB if Masterwork weapons or feats such as Weapon Focus or having a weapon with a +1 enhancement would affect the calculation for a CMB. I am making a two handed Halfling Fighter. I know Halflings have a disadvantage on strength but I think it will be fun to role play. But I would like to increase his CMB. I know the feat agile maneuvers lets you use Dex instead of Str. But my Dex is at a 16 which only gives me one more point since my Str is a 14. Also is playing a 7 intelligence hard. I'm thinking it would be like Caramon from Dragonlance. Not to bright but he talks normal. Thanks for the help
Trip, disarm, and sunder are the only combat maneuvers that use weapons by default. That means you can apply any weapon bonuses to them (including Weapon Finesse, so you don't need Agile Maneuvers for those 3). Some others, particularly dirty trick, might use a weapon depending on what exactly you're trying to do.
Yes those would help you, assuming the weapon can be used for the maneuver in question.
Another thing to look at is whether or not you will be using strength or dex later on. If you are going with a dex based character agile maneuvers might not be bad idea, but if you expect to use strength then I would not take it.
