Paired oppertunist and Improved feint partner


Advice


This seams like it could be neat combo and I can even see how one could feint 3 time is one turn (moonlight stalker, improved feint, and double strike) but would it ever really be possible to put all of this into a pair of builds to take reasonable advantage or it?

It just seams like it it would take to many feats to take advantage of this.

All in all in seams that feinting is only worth while with ITWF or feinting flurry. They at least avoid combat expertise.

Anything else seams to be a very weak option to use.

This could be done, but it would take a lot of feats to do well. That's too many feats to be practical. There are probably better ways to use Paired Opportunists. Here are some ideas for a Paired Opportunists duo:

* A full martial PC great at combat maneuvers, especially trip. A part martial PC (perhaps a full spell caster and capable martial, e.g. Sorcerer, Oracle, or Cleric) who exploits the tripped foes and buffs the pair. Both take Combat Reflexes and use reach weapons. Careful movement discipline is required in order to remain adjacent. The one with best initiative should always delay until the one with lower initiative goes. The +4 bonus from Paired Opportunists does apply to CMB for e.g. Trip. Greater Trip for the win.

* A PC with a reach weapon rides an animal companion with natural reach. An Axe Beak works, as does a Roc. Both take Paired Opportunists and and at least one takes Combat Reflexes. Your combined AoOs will be deadly. Broken Wing Gambit for the win.

If feinting is your thing then Paired Opportunists probably won't do you much good. It works best when you whack things with a big stick.
