Vicious Slice (Ex)

Requires: Barbarian 1, Urban Mien
Benefit: Once per round as a free action, you can activate Vicious Slice. The next attack you make before the start of your next turn, if it hits, inflicts a Bleed on your target, equal to your CHA modifier, in addition to dealing normal damage. Note that bleeds do not stack; only the largest bleed is applied to a target, replacing any smaller one which might be present. If the attack misses, or fails to occur before the start of your next turn, this activation provides no benefit.
Vicious Slice cannot be activated in the same round as any other rage powers capable of inflicting a status condition, unless it inflicts status conditions from the same array (i.e. Bruised, Bleed or Ruptured).

Progression:

  • 11th Level: When you activate Vicious Slice, it now inflicts the Ruptured condition, instead of Bleed, and it applies to up to two attacks you make before the start of your next turn, one of which must be your next attack. You must declare which attacks are augmented with Vicious Slice before rolling the attack.
  • 21st Level: Attacks augmented by Vicious Slice now inflict your Barbarian class level plus your CHA ability score (not modifier) as Ruptured, in addition to dealing normal damage. For example, a level 21 Urban Barbarian with a 26 CHA would inflict 47 points of Rupture per successful attack, and could stack this on a single target up to twice per round at this level.
  • 31st Level: When you activate Vicious Slice, it now applies to up to three attacks you make before the start of your next turn, one of which must be your next attack. You must declare which attacks are augmented with Vicious Slice before rolling the attack.
