(Style, Combat)
You protect your allies from harm, even at the cost of your own safety.
Prerequisites
Combat Reflexes, base attack bonus +2 or
Monk, Astoran level 1st.
Benefit
While using this style, as a
Move Action, you can protect adjacent allies from a single opponent that you currently threaten. This grants adjacent allies a +2
Dodge Bonus to AC against that opponent's next
Melee Attack (as long as that attack comes before the beginning of your next turn), but causes you to take a -2 penalty to AC against that opponent until your next turn. The
Dodge Bonus against the designated opponent's attacks persists even if your allies move away from you.
