Cleave is an at-will power available to fighters at 1st level.
Feats
These feats are only available to characters with a martial class. (This restriction is relevant to non-fighter characters who acquire Cleave through some other means, such as the Dilettante racial trait.)

| Criterion of Balic Practice (Arena Fighting) | - | When you hit an enemy with this exploit, you can shift one square as a free action (or two squares if you are an elf). Ignore difficult terrain for this shift. |
| Cruel Cut Style | Wis 13 | If no other enemies are adjacent to the target when you hit the target with this exploit, the target takes ongoing damage equal to your Wisdom modifier. |
