You throw a hammer repeatedly at a foe, making a loop of attacks with devastating results.

Prerequisites: Level 11, Proficient with Light Hammer or Club

Benefit: Each time you successfully attack the same creature with a thrown Club or Light Hammer, after the first time in an encounter, you gain +1d4 of bonus damage. This damage bonus continues to stack with every attack you make against the same foe within the same encounter. The maximum bonus is a number of d4's equal to the maximum number of attacks your BAB grants you during a full attack action. You gain no bonus damage on the first hit, only on the second and later hits on the same opponent. This bonus damage applies to all attacks made by throwing a Club or Light Hammer at the same target, including bonus attacks or attacks of opportunity. As long as you continue to only attack the same foe, the bonus dice persist until the end of the encounter, or until the foe is slain (whichever occurs first). If you change targets, the bonus damage on the target you left is lost. You cannot ever build up bonus dice against more than one target at a time. This bonus damage only applies to (and accumulates from) thrown attacks, not melee attacks.

This bonus damage is considered precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit.

Note: If your light hammer or club does not have the returning property (gained for free when it has at least a +1 enhancement bonus), this feat will be very difficult to use.
