Trip is a combat maneuver that allows an attacker to trip an opponent using a quarterstaff, runestaff, or two-handed polearm. Training in Two-handed Weapons or Polearm Weapons is recommended to use this maneuver.

You need at least 20 ranks of Two-Handed Weapons or Polearm Weapons beyond the CMAN Trip itself to use it effectively.
