Barbarian Pounce with a Helm of the Mammoth Lord qualifiy when using these rage powers.


Rules Questions


My barbarian is wearing a Helm of the Mammoth Lord which gives you a gore attack. Could I use this gore attack in conjunction with Beast Totem, Greater,

Disemboweling Tusks(While raging, deal Con damage when you confirm a critical hit with your gore attack),

Boar's Charge(Automatically score critical hits with your gore attack while raging)

If I pounce and hit multiple times would each hit a be a auto critical as boar's charge stats?

Remember you can only use a given natural attack once per attack.

Yes and no.

You only have one gore attack thus you can only make one gore attack. You can however make your gore attack in conjunction with the rest of your normal attacks albeit at a -5 penalty since it'll be a secondary attack now.

And you still need to confirm the critical.

With each gore attack, yes. You normally only get one, but by level 10 most parties have access to haste, allowing you to get a second attack (Consider getting the free action boots with haste on them).


Ahhh I thought I could use the gore attack provided from the helm, pounce(gore) at my full bab using the Greater beast totem power.

Lance: If I have the pounce ability and I charge with a lance, do my iterative lance attacks get the lance's extra damage multiplier from charging?

No, it doesn’t makes sense that those iterative attacks gain the damage bonus. To make that second attack, you have to pull the lance back and stab forward again, and that stab doesn’t have the benefit of the charge’s momentum. (The Core Rulebook doesn’t state that you only get the damage multiplier on the first attack with a lance because when the Core Rulebook was published, there was no way for a PC to charge and get multiple attacks with a weapon in the same round, so that combination didn’t need to be addressed.)

I think the same logic applies with the gore + haste combo.

You get the charge benefit only on the first gore attack, not the second.

Ah, true there Diego!


We use the crit cards so it's still pretty good. Thanks for the input.
