[3.5] Climbing Enemies (looking for a Feat)

[RebelRogue]

I seem to recall a Feat that allowed you to actually climb a creature suffiently larger than you, but I don't remember the name or the sourcebook. Can anyone help?

Underfoot Fighting, tactical feat. I'll have the book in a minute, as well as a link to a build that abuses it well. IIRC on all of the above, of course.

Sorry, I have no clue. These two threads are about fighting bigger critters, but neither mentions it.

Maybe I'm confusing it with a Class Feature?

There's one in Dungeonscape.

Giantbane is a tactical feat from Complete Warrior, which grants this as a combat option.

You have to move beside a creature (at least) two size-categories larger than yourself; on the round following that, you make a free climb check to grab onto them, and you then occupy some of their space. If it moves, you move with it. It can attack you, but at -4 to all rolls due to it being awkward.

It can also try to shake you off with a grapple check, opposed by your climb check. Meaning at high levels you're gonna get thrown-off easily if you don't have some huge climbing bonuses. It can be accomplished with enough magical aid; just be sure to be on good terms with a wizard who can craft you stuff to help.

Giantbane was the one I was thinking of. I missed it because Tactical Feats have their own subsection. Thanks for the help, everyone

There is also a weapon style feat from Dungeonscape called Hammer and Piton, which let you, suprise suprise, hammer pitons into your enemy. The fun part is that now you can climb them

And here is what DM of the Ring has to say about your idea
