- I SMASH YOU TOO!! – your attacks have a wide range and once per day may strike adjacent opponents as well as your main target

- SMASH YOU AWAY!! - on a successful attack the smashy smasher may make a bull rush attempt as a free action, however he must make a reflex save (DC = 10+ the smasher's str mod) or fall prone. If the smasher succeeds the bull rush attempt he does not have to move.
SMASHY SMASHY!! (Ex) – at 10th level the smashy smasher has gained extreme use with his weapons and has learned to maximize his damage output. With this ability the smashy smasher now adds 1.5*str for main hand damage, 1*str for off hand damage, or 2*str for using a weapon in 2 handsLast edited by Mr Pants; 2007-01-31 at 04:46 PM.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
Why Profession (smasher)? So that characters can earn some money on the side by making Profession checks?
"Oh, Mr Smasher, my Fluffy is stuck up this tree..."
"Stand back, ma'am, I'll take care of GRAAAAAAAAARGH--"
*SMASH* *CRUNCH* ""Mreeeeeowwww!!" *catch*
"Oh thank you Mr Smasher, thank you so much... here, some silver pieces for your trouble..."
"Well thank you, ma'am, it was no trouble at all... now if you'll excuse me, I have a blocked drain to clear..."
*ahem*
Anyway... I was a little surprised not to see Improved Sunder or any reference to sundering in here.
I do however love that Use Magic Device is on the Smashy Skills list.I support paladins and the alignment system.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
hehe, I like it. Why exotic weapon proficiency (bludgeoning wep) as a prerequisite? Why can't it be some other non-exotic bludgeoning weapon?
Also, for the spikes ability, does it allow them to wield spiked weapons, or does any weapon of that type they pick up suddenly grow spikes?
I'd say, other than that, it may even be a teensy bit underpowered, but I'm not the best judge of that.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
Thats the idea!

to answer Icewalker's questions:
I added EWP because i was running out of ideas for prereqs, I think improved sunder would make a nice replacement though
The spiked trait does cause spikes to grow out of your hammer/mace. I guess I could add something about switching to another weapon and still have the traits. Maybe you'd have to spend an hour or so transferring the traits to the new weapon. That way the change would not happen instantly and just cause spikes to grow from any mace the smasher holds.Last edited by Mr Pants; 2007-01-31 at 02:44 PM.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
I might suggest taking a leaf out of the mages' book here. Your 'spell target' is the weapon. Your 'material component' is a handy supply of stout nails. Your 'focus' is any hard surface. Your 'casting time' is ten minutes or so. And lo, through the magic of SMASHY, many spikes sprout from your weapon, rather like nails embedded in it by force...
The downside is that this becomes a permanent feature of the weapon, so overall it feels less like a special power of the class. Oh well.I support paladins and the alignment system.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
I like it :) I have a friend that would love it XD
Can you stack Rage, Frenzy and Smashing Frenzy? hehehehe....
Hmm... a new Technique: Smash you away. When you hit the opponent, you can perform a Bull Rush. Your opponent is thrown back and must roll a Reflex save to don't fall prone. You don't move even if you win the Str check.

Re: Smashy Smasher!!!
Glad you like it!
I'm not sure if frenzy and rage stack; have to check that, but smashing frenzy stacks with rage and the FB Frenzy
And i like the technique, the more options the better!Last edited by Mr Pants; 2007-01-31 at 04:48 PM.
