Brute Fighting


(Races of Eberron, page 116, DnD 3.5)


[Racial, Tactical, Warforged]


Your extensive training with two-handed weapons is revealed through brutally effective tactics.

Prerequisite


Power Attack, STR 13, Warforged, base attack bonus +3

Benefit


Brute Fighting enables the use of three tactical maneuvers. Combat Momentum: If you deal damage to a foe with a charge attack made with a two-handed weapon and that opponent then fails to hit you before your next turn, you gain a +1 bonus on attack rolls against that opponent on your next turn. Dispatch the Fallen: If you successfully bull rush or overrun a foe, any melee attack you make against that foe with a two-handed weapon on your next turn gains a +4 bonus on damage rolls. Frenzied Attack: If you hit a foe with a two-handed weapon at least once on two consecutive turns during which you use the Power Attack feat (taking at least a -2 penalty on attack rolls), you gain a +2 bonus on all attack rolls you make with that weapon against the same foe for the rest of the round.
