PoS:Hamstring

You know how to strike with painful precision to hobble your foes.

Prerequisites: Sneak attack, base attack bonus +5 or higher.

Benefit: Once per round when you use a full- round action to make a single successful sneak attack, your opponent must make a successful Fort save (DC 10 + 1/2 your character level). If the save fails, the opponent is hobbled. The hobbled character’s speed is reduced by half and he suffers a –6 penalty to effective Dexterity. This penalty does not apply for actions such as ranged combat and spellcast- ing that do not require lower-body move- ment. In addition, a hobbled character is always considered flat-footed. A character is unaffected by this condition when flying, levi- tating, or otherwise moving without using his legs for support and mobility. This condition lasts until the opponent receives a successful Heal check (DC 10 + 1/2 your character level) or benefits from a spell that cures ability dam- age (e.g., lesser restoration, restoration, etc.). This feat can only be used against living crea- tures that can normally be affected by sneak attacks.
