Description

Tactical Melee Attack: A melee attack which also Bluffs enemies, enabling sneak attacks for a short period of time. This attack deals +20% damage.

• Target: Foe, Directional, Breakable
• Duration: 4 seconds

Notes

• The bluff check is triggered immediately upon making the associated melee attack.
• Separate bluff checks are made against all enemies in melee range in a frontal arc, whether targeted by the melee attack or not.
• Bluffed enemies will momentarily turn around, potentially interrupting attacks or spells. An icon usually appears above the head of bluffed enemies.
• Because the bluff check only triggers on melee attack, Improved Feint cannot be used to pull enemies, unlike the activated Bluff skill.
• Improved Feint and Bluff have separate timers.
• Improved Feint does not provide a bonus to the Bluff roll, unlike Improved Trip's and Improved Sunder's +4.
• Fighters may select this feat as one of their fighter bonus feats.
