Does a menacing weapon, outflank, and disorientating maneuver all stack?


Rules Questions


Does a menacing weapon, outflank, and disorientating maneuver all stack? If a rogue used disorientation maneuver to move into flank, wielding a menacing weapon, and with the feat outflank (with a party member with who has outflank) what would his bonus be?

Is: +2 flanking, +2 menacing, + 2 outflank, +2 disorientation maneuver = +8 correct?

Not sure what a disorientation maneuver is, but that's likely how I'd run it. I definitely think the others stack.

Disorienting Maneuver provides a circumstance bonus, flanking provides a flanking bonus, and outflank and menacing both increase the flanking bonus.

They all stack, for a +8 to hit. If you really want to get nasty, include circling mongoose.

What would circling mongoose do? I read it and don't understand it fully.


They are all different bonus types and most definitely do stack with each other. Very nasty combo and straight up fantastic for an inquisitor.

Circling Mongoose allows you to flank your enemy without a flank partner.

Ahhhh!


Circling Mongoose would be a nice addition to this, but now you're really getting into a massive number of feats to make it work. So, depending on your race and class... you're looking at 15th level for classes that do not grant a good number of bonus feats. Also, you'll need to ensure you have a high enough BaB and Acrobatics skill to avoid AoOs from each step you take.

Fighter is really about the only option you have to make this combination really work. Now, Paired Opportunists is a great Teamwork feat to stack on with the initial posting.
