titan fighter tripper any other feats?

[demonolgist]

hey everyone i made this titan fighter awhile back and he made it to lvl 7 and i chose these feats

power atk
weapon focus greataxe
combat expertise
improved trip
weapon specialization greataxe
ironwill
felling smash
greater trip

obviuse going for the infinite trip combo so but i think i have enough of those feats so i need something outside of tripping.

any feat ideas?

Switching to a weapon with the trip quality will let you use your weapon's enhancement bonus on trip attempts. Depending on your dexterity, Fury's Fall will do more for you than Felling Smash. Dirty Fighting would let get away with lower Int. Intimidating Prowess can give you a social skill.

What infinite trip combo?

[Avoron]

You can always use your weapon's enhancement bonus on trip attempts. The trip quality allows you to use the bonus on drag and reposition attempts, as well as dropping your weapon to avoid being tripped in return. Probably not worth it.

[Claxon]

There is no "infinite trip". It has been specifically rules that while standing up from prone provokes an AoO the person isn't standing yet and so they cannot be tripped again.

You may however want to add lunge to your feats to give you extra reach and use a reach weapon.

Korlos is incorrect about tripping weapns and Avoron is correct.

Trip Weapons: If you want to make a trip combat maneuver, do you have to use a weapon with the trip special feature?

No. When making a trip combat maneuver, you don't have to use a weapon with the trip special feature--you can use any weapon. For example, you can trip with a longsword or an unarmed strike, even though those weapons don't have the trip special feature.
Note that there is an advantage to using a weapon with the trip special feature (a.k.a. a "trip weapon") when making a trip combat maneuver: if your trip attack fails by 10 or more, you can drop the trip weapon instead of being knocked prone.

On a related note, you don't have to use a weapon with the disarm special feature (a.k.a. a "disarm weapon") when making a disarm combat maneuver--you can use any weapon.

Note: This is a revision of this FAQ entry based on a Paizo blog about combat maneuvers with weapons. The previous version of this FAQ stated that using a trip weapon was the only way you could apply weapon enhancement bonuses, Weapon Focus bonuses, and other such bonuses to the trip combat maneuver roll. The clarification in that blog means any weapon used to trip applies these bonuses when making a trip combat maneuver, so this FAQ was updated to omit the "only trip weapons let you apply these bonuses" limitation.

Trip: When a prone character stands up and provokes an attack of opportunity, can I use that attack to trip the character again?

No. The attack of opportunity is triggered before the action that triggered it is resolved. In this case, the target is still prone when the attack of opportunity occurs (and you get the normal bonuses when making such an attack). Since the trip combat maneuver does not prevent the target's action, the target then stands up.
