OK, here's the situational. I'm currently playing in Curse of the Crimson Throne. It's three players. The other two are an arcanist and a ranged rogue. Thus, my brawler (wild child) and his bear buddy are the entire front line.
We're currently at 4th level, and I think we'll hit 5th level soon. My feats so far are Dirty Fighting, Improved Grapple, and Dodge. I'm looking at my feat for 5th level, and I can't decide whether Mobility or Power Attack would be a better choice. Power Attack (alongside Dodge, Combat Reflexes, and Combat Expertise) is a gateway feat needed to maximize martial flexibility's, well, flexibility. On the other hand, if I pick up Mobility, it seems to offer a lot of neat options.
My play style so far has been very light on the raw power attack moves. I typically flank enemies with the bear -- the bear actually does more consistent damage thanks to his bite/claw/claw routine. I've also used Dirty Fighting so I can do things like yoink an enemy's weapon out of his hand without eating an AOO. Martial Flexibility has been very much an ad-hoc thing -- getting Boar Style for numerous foes with low AC, or using Crane Style to pump up my own AC against dangerous foes, or goind Dedicated Adversary for enemies that are hard to hit.
Any thoughts here?
