Benefit: While using this style, you can spend a swift action to make a Knowledge check to identify a single creature (DC 15 + the creature’s CR for this purpose). If you succeed at the check, while using this style, you gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against that creature’s attacks, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against that creature’s attacks of opportunity. These bonuses last for as long as you use this style. If you cease combat with the creature during this time and resume it later, you can attempt the check again.Source Pathfinder Unchained pg. 125 When you attempt a Knowledge check to identify a creature, you can spend up to 2 stamina points to gain a bonus on that check equal to double the number of stamina points you spent.
