Improved Brace (Apath)

Unofficial rules compendium

Improved Brace (Combat)

You can rapidly brace a weapon against a charge.

Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes, proficient with spear.

Benefits: You must wield a weapon with the brace quality to use this feat. When you make an attack of opportunity against a charging opponent you do double damage, as if your attack was a readied action. When an enemy triggers an attack of opportunity by moving from one space in your threatened area and into another, you do double damage on a readied attack or attack of opportunity, as if that opponent was charging. Additionally, you can wield a spear as a one-handed weapon.
