Hello,
I have a character with an animal companion for mount, the mount has the feat of charge through and greater overrun.
If during a charge performed by using the ride by attack feat (from the rider), the mount can perform a free overrun combat manoeuver? (because in mounted charge both rider and mount are charging)
The rider can benefit from the mount’s overrun through the charge (to declare the charge to an enemy after the overrun target)? without having an attack of opportunity above himself?
If the manoeuver is a success of 5 or more, the rider can do an attack of opportunity on the prone enemy? if yes the rider benefit of the charging bonus to perform that attack of opportunity?
If the maneuver is a fail, the rider and the mount stopped front of the overrun target and can’t do any attack during this round?
Cordially
Both rider and the mount will provoke AoO from entering the target's square, mount will not provoke from maneuver (due to improved overrun).
Rider can AoO the target due to Greater Overrun, i dont think they will get charge bonus because its a bonus to a single attack made as part of charge, not bonus to attacks for the duration of charge, as opposed to penalty that lingers for 1 round.
If mount fails to overrun, rider can still attack the target.
Correct me if i am wrong somehwere.
Both rider and the mount will provoke AoO from entering the target's square, mount will not provoke from maneuver (due to improved overrun).
...If mount fails to overrun, rider can still attack the target.
Two thing, there AoO from entering in the target's square and AoO to initiating an overrun, the mount initiate the overrun so only the mount is concerned by this AoO but why the mount isn't concerned by the AoO from entering in the target's square? or during an overrun the AoO of entering in the target's space is merged with the AoO of te overrun?
Regarding the second point, why the rider can still attack the target he used a complex action to attempt a charge action, so he doesn’t have enough action remained to perform an attack?
Cordially
Thats what i ment, both will provoke from entering, the mount will not provoke the second one from attempting the maneuver.
I don't see why he would not, rider is entitled to attack at the end of the charge (or in the middle if Ride By Attack), mount failing the overrun does not affect the rider from what i understand (other than he does not get +4 from attacking a prone target if he decides to attack second).
If you mean that rider charged a different target than the one being overrun, then yes, he cannot change the target.
Yes it's what i mean, the rider charge a target at the back of the overrun target, so if the overrun fail, the rider can't do anything ?
But while the rider doesn't have charge through feat can he declare a charge to a target hide by an other (the witch one to overrun) ?
