Nat_20 03-07-07, 01:42 PM	im kind of new to the fourms, started today, but i was just wondering if hideous blow gives any attacks of opportunity? If so, is there any feats to cancel that? I dont remember where it states it but i know you cant do more STR damage than dice number (1D6 + 6 dmg) but can you go over the limit with the swashbucklers ability to do INT damage? Like if a use a daggar and have a 20 int thus making it 1D4 + 5? Thanks

If so, is there any feats to cancel that?As written, yes, since using an invocation provokes an attack of opportunity. However, note that you can use a spell-like ability (such as an invocation) defensively -- read the Concentration skill. If you can make a DC 16 Concentration check (15+the level of the invocation, which is 1st for Hideous Blow), you don't provoke attacks of opportunity for it. If you fail the check, you waste your action, though. I dont remember where it states it but i know you cant do more STR damage than dice number (1D6 + 6 dmg) but can you go over the limit with the swashbucklers ability to do INT damage? Like if a use a daggar and have a 20 int thus making it 1D4 + 5?You don't know where that's from because it doesn't exist. You can deal any variable after a die. If my barbarian has a Strength of 18 and rages (raising it to 22), he could deal 1d4+6 damage with a dagger. If it's a +1 dagger, he could deal 1d4+7. Simply put, there's no such rule.ThanksNo problem.
