Adjacent flanking?


Rules Questions


Hi!

Can you, please, name me abilities, feats or magic items that gives a possibility to flank when adjacent to the friend NOT INCLUDING ratfolk swarming and "Owerhelming" teamwork feat? Thanks! :)


There is the gang up feat description here


Thanks!

But how does it work with outflank teamwork feat? :\

And, maybe, anything else?


There is also Pack flanking for animal companion classes that makes you and your companion creature always flank when adjacent or sharing a square.


The idea is to use outflank with two fighters: one with good damage, another with bodyguard and good AC. So... how to get them flank and be adjacent? :))


Gang up still gives you flanking even when you are not in standard flanking position, so you would still get the +2 flanking bonus. All Outflank does is change that Bonus, so you would get it. Same with Pack flanking.

But what about outflanking attack of opportunity for critical hit? How does it work with it?

Mouser archetype allows adjacent flanking in some circumstances and pairs well with outflank and bodyguard as well.

Just the way you think it should. Gang Up changes the circumstances in which you are considered to be flanking. Outflank gives you benefits when you are flanking. (My wife and I have a pair of dual-wielding elves that use that combo to great effect.)

And as Grey Mage mentioned, if one of you is a mouser, or you team up with one, then the mouser allows everyone who is adjacent to both him and the enemy to be considered flanking. That would dovetail with Outflank as well. (My wife has a teamwork-feat granting paladin paired with my mouser, and she can give the party Outflank for exactly that reason.)
