Feinting is a standard action. To feint, make a Bluff skill check. The DC of
this check is equal to 10 + your opponent's base attack bonus + your opponent's
Wisdom modifier. If your opponent is trained in Sense Motive, the DC is instead
equal to 10 + your opponent's Sense Motive bonus, if higher. If successful, the
next melee attack you make against the target does not allow him to use his
Dexterity bonus to AC (if any). This attack must be made on or before your next
turn.

When feinting against a non-humanoid you take a –4 penalty. Against a creature
of animal Intelligence (1 or 2), you take a –8 penalty. Against a creature
lacking an Intelligence score, it's impossible. Feinting in combat does not
provoke attacks of opportunity.
