Solid high option for tanks and slippery rogue. I saw it used with great effect without it feeling overpowered.

I also appreciate that it smooth and short. The flow of the game is a big concern for me lately.

Activation

Any chance of having goad become part of the attack option? If so, it'd be a good pair with intimidating strike. Havvy 03:56, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Nope, don't want it to be used with whirlwind/TWF/other stuff that gives extra attacks. Just use it as a swift action after making your attack. --Ghostwheel 03:58, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
I think they had a feat like this in Complete Warrior or Scoundrel. One of them two. Either way, is this a rewrite of the feat the Wizards made, or just a cool idea you had?--Teh Storm 04:42, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
Complete Adventurer and Races of Stone, actually. And it sucked. Taunting and goading has been around so long that its idea doesn't really originate from anywhere. --Ghostwheel 04:52, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
I just role play taunting. Sometimes a bluff roll is called, but I think that is all taunting should be at most.--Teh Storm 05:32, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
Well, that's play style, not to mention the fluff part of the feat. The meat is the numbers. Saying you use RP instead of dice rolling for X mechanic has no helpful effect in the game. It could be called "Inconveniencing Attention Getter" and still work the same way. Havvy 05:45, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
