Feats
Rush Attack
The character gains a free attack by pushing the opponent off-balance.
Prerequisites: Improved Bull Rush, Base attack bonus of at least +6
Benefit: If the character bull rushes an opponent in melee combat, the character immediately gets a melee attack against that opponent as if the character hadn't used the character's attack for the bull rush attempt.
Fighting Withdrawal
The character gains a greater ability to escape areas threatened by another combatant without getting hit.
Prerequisites: Mobility, Expertise, Base attack bonus of +5 or higher.
Benefit: The character gets a +4 dodge bonus against attacks of opportunity from one selected opponent when the character moves out of or within a threatened area. The bonus applies only to the opponent selected for the dodge bonus from the Dodge feat, and only applies if the character starts movement within an area threatened by that selected opponent.
Note: A condition that makes the character lose the Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes the character lose dodge bonuses. Also, dodge bonuses stack with each other, unlike most types of bonuses.
Slippery Step
The character can get an extra 5-foot step.
Prerequisites: Mobility, 5 or more ranks of Tumbling
Benefit: The character can trade the first attack in every round for an additional five-foot step. The step is in addition to the normal five-foot step allowed each character. All rules regarding five-foot steps apply to this step. For example, this extra step can be used to move five feet through a threatened area without provoking attacks of opportunity.
The step always replaces the character's first attack in a round (this is the one with the highest base attack bonus). A character with only one attack per round can trade that attack for an extra step.
Normal: A character gets one five-foot step per round.
