Combat Vaulting

Combat Vaulting

†
1 point

You can use a pole weapon to aid balance and make impressive vaults in combat. To benefit from this perk, you must first take a Ready maneuver to grip your weapon properly. After that, you may either add (Reach - 1) to combat uses of Acrobatics and Jumping, or add Reach to vertical or horizontal Jumping distance – choose each turn. Returning to a fighting grip requires another Ready; learn Form Mastery to make this a free action after a stunt. You must specialize by Reach 2+ pole weapon: Combat Vaulting (Halberd), Combat Vaulting (Long Spear), Combat Vaulting (Quarterstaff), etc.
