Now i don't know how many enemies you fight twice, but in my group, 99% of the enemies we encounter do not live to tell the tale so that would make it useless. Secondly, although the ghostwalker gains the feign death ability, the rest of your party does not have it. And i don't think the party will take a liking to you if you start feinting death halfway in a fight, just so you'll have bonuses the next time. Because, you know, they don't and they can't feign death. So even if you don't kill the enemies in order to be able to fight them a 2nd time, you partymembers will. Add in the fact that it requires you to take three really bad feats to qualify, and i'd say this prc just outright sucks. It's more of a DM thing for recurring villains imo.

Ertai Planeswalker 06-08-07, 02:22 AM	Yeah, those are nice, but certainly not worth taking 3 bad feats.
