Maneuver Mastery

The following feats control how well and how often you are able to execute your combat maneuvers. You cannot train these feats directly. Instead, you gain TP in these feats as you train other combat maneuver feats. Total the amount of TP you have spent in all combat maneuver feats. If that number exceeds any of the costs below, you have gained that new feat.

Maneuver Points and Regaining Them: Each character starts with 1 maneuver point and regenerates a single maneuver point after completing a short rest. All expended maneuver points are regenerated after completing a long rest.

Using a Combat Maneuver Point: You may not use more than 1 combat maneuver point per turn. In order to gain the benefit or enact the mechanics of any combat maneuver feat, you must first spend a combat maneuver point. You must spend the point before making any of the required rolls. This point is expended whether or not the combat maneuver was successful.

Saves and Skill Checks: Many of the combat maneuver feats above require either you or your target to make a skill check or a save. The value of and saving throws, skill or ability checks starts at 16 for your PC and 12 for your target. These values are modified by the “Potency Feats” below.
