Low level Items good for tripping


Advice


What are some good items below 5K that are good for tripping your opponent?


Marble 2sp
Masterwork Bolas 305gp
Masterwork Horsechopper 310gp
Masterwork Heavy Flail 315gp
Masterwork Snag Net 330gp
Wayfinder 500gp
Cracked Dusty Rose Prism Ioun Stone 500gp
Wand of Grease 750gp

Masterwork weapons are good for low level CMB because you get +1 for 300gp. Wayfinder and Dusty Rose Prism Ioun Stone gives you +2 CMB and CMD for 1000gp total cost. Marbles and Wand of Grease will help you for the initial setup if you have the time. Also GM might let you have bonus if your target is standing on Marble or Grease.

Bolas and Snag Net is good to start off the fight with. Horsechopper gives you reach and good damage so very effective for melee engage, as you don't want to be hit or counter trip by the target. It's okay if your other melee team mates get hurt, because you will still be tripping the target. Drop and switch to Heavy Flail if target gets too close.


FYI, all the trip property does is let you drop your weapon instead of being tripped if you fail by 10 or more.

Assuming that your character isn't terrible at maneuvers, this will virtually never come up. The trip property is borderline useless.

I would think a Masterwork Whip wouldn't be a bad option either. Not for damage since your bound to be unable to harm the target until you could get Deadly on it...that 15 feet of range though. It's pretty useful.

I didn't even realize marbles can trip. I learned something today.

A wayfinder's resonance doesn't work with cracked or flawed ioun stones, just with regular ones.

Oh, I didn't know that. Good to know.


A lasso.


Gauntlets of Skilled Manuevers are 4,000gp, I believe, for a straight +2 to CMB on a single combat manuever.
