Shoving Shoulder (Rage Power)

Shoving Shoulder (Ex)

Requires: Barbarian 1

Benefit: Once per round as a free action, you can spend 2 points of fury to activate Shoving Shoulder, allowing you to select one enemy creature you successfully hit this round with a melee attack and push that creature 1 square away from you. You must activate Shoving Shoulder before any attack rolls are made, but you can choose any one of your melee attacks that hit an enemy to apply Shoving Shoulder to, after all of your attacks have been resolved. If the attack you apply Shoving Shoulder to was a critical hit, the enemy creature is instead pushed a number of squares equal to your weapon's critical multiplier. This is forced movement, and you can choose any non-blocked path, as long as each square of movement is further away from you than the creature's previous space.

Progression:

• 11th Level: The base amount of forced movement caused by Shoving Shoulder increases to 2 squares, or to 1 + your weapon's critical multiplier on a critical hit.
• 21st Level: The cost to add additional forced movement to Shoving Shoulder is reduced to only 1 point of fury per additional square of forced movement.
• 31st Level: The base amount of forced movement caused by Shoving Shoulder increases to 3 squares, or to 3 + your weapon's critical multiplier on a critical hit.
