Ghenesh 05-22-07, 12:58 PM	This was posted on the thread "Post fighter only feats" about a month ago, i collected most of them but missed the last two pages, so the latest posted feats are not here. Too bad the discussion on the feats and the ideas were not saved, but the feats themselves are a good resource to homebrew material, for anyone who's interested here they are. All feats are grouped by poster/author.

Prerequisites: Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization Benefit: When fighting defensively with a weapon you are specialized in, you can use your melee attacks to deflect incoming melee attacks you are aware of. When a melee opponent makes an attack roll, you chose to make an opposed roll using an available melee attack at the appropriate attack bonus (ie. first attack at full bonus, and subsequent attacks at -5 cumulative; all accounting for penalties for fighting defensively). In some cases, such as with a standard sunder attempt or unarmed attack, this attack can be in place of an attack of opportunity (in which case you roll using your full attack bonus, again with applicable defensive fighting penalty). If you strike the same or higher AC as your opponent's roll, your weapon makes contact with your opponents melee weapon, making an appropriate noise. After contact, you then make a damage roll opposing your opponent's damage roll (if any). If the opponent would have struck your AC, subtract your damage total from his total (before applying any other defenses such as damage reduction) and if the result is 0 or less you have succeeded in completely deflecting the attack. Otherwise, the deflection was partially successful, and you suffer less damage as a result. If the opponent would have missed your AC altogether and you met or won the opposed roll, there is still noise from your blade making contact with the opposing melee weapon. Special: If you roll a natural 1 on a parrying blow attack, you have been successfully disarmed if possible. If you fall short of your opposed attack roll by 20 or more, your opponent gains a free sunder attempt against your weapon in addition to his standard strike. In either case, you lose any additional attacks for the round (including attacks of opportunity), regardless if the disarm was impossible (i.e vs grafted or natural weapon) or the sunder was impossible or failed. ---------- ZocckCastlestorm Hammerskip Type: Fighter Bonus/Standard Action Prerequisites: STR 13+, DEX 13+, Fighter 6+, Weapon Focus(Any Hammer), Weapon Specialization(Any Hammer), Throw Anything, and Point Blank Shot. Benefits: This Feat allows a Fighter to thow a Hammer (Any you have Specialization with) at one Target within 30'. If the Hammer Hits the Target by 5 or more than is needed to hit, the Hammer bounces off(still doing full Damage) and the throwing Fighter makes an Immediate Attack Roll against any other Target within 10 feet of the First. Any hit against the second target is only half of normal Damage. ---------- Snipafist Intimidating Combatant Prerequisites: Charisma 13+, Intimidate 4 ranks . Some bullies are all talk. And then there are people like you. Benefit: Once per combat, when you make an attack that drops an enemy, you may immediately make an Intimidate check to demoralize an opponent that you threaten. Unlike a usual Intimidate check made to demoralize an enemy, the target remains shaken until it can no longer see you at the end of its turn. Special: Intimidating Combatant may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Terrifying Warrior Prerequisites: Charisma 15+, Intimidating Combatant, Intimidate 9 ranks. Your strike terror into the hearts of your enemies. Benefit: Once per combat when you make an attack that drops an enemy, you may immediately make a single Intimidate check to demoralize all opponents that you threaten. Unlike a usual Intimidate check made to demoralize an enemy, shaken targets remain so until they can no longer see you at the end of their turn. This feat supersedes Intimidating Warrior. Special: Terrifying Warrior may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Parry Prerequisites: Dodge, Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes. You have accelerated your mastery of defensive fighting, incorporating your considerable finesse into a defensive routine. Benefit: After being told that you are the target of an attack, but before the attack roll is made, you may sacrifice one of your attacks of opportunity for the round. If you do so, you double your bonus to armor class from Combat Expertise against that one attack. Subsequent attacks function normally, but you may use this feat as often as you have attacks of opportunity left to spend. You may not use Parry if you are denied your Dexterity bonus to armor class against an attack or if you are unarmed (you still count as being armed while wielding no weapons if you have Improved Unarmed Strike). Special: Parry may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Riposte Prerequisites: Parry. You are, able to effortlessly turn a parried blow into a counterattack against an unwitting foe. Benefit: If you used Parry to augment your AC against a foe’s attack and that attack missed by 10 or more, you may sacrifice an additional attack of opportunity to make an immediate attack against that foe. Do not forget to subtract your penalty to hit from using Combat Expertise when doing so. Special: Riposte may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Flourish Prerequisites: Charisma 13+, Combat Expertise. You are able to further motivate yourself by demonstrating how little you respect your opponents. By adding unnecessary flourishes into your actions, it is clear that you feel no need to take your opponents seriously and enjoy showing off at their expense. Benefit: You may willingly apply a -5 penalty to d20 rolls made in combat. The following types of rolls are eligible for this feat: attack rolls, saving throws, grapple checks, and opposed attribute rolls (like an opposed roll in a Trip attempt). For each of these rolls that succeed despite the -5 penalty imposed, you gain a +1 bonus on all your rolls to hit, damage, and save for the length of that combat. These bonuses are cumulative, but may not exceed your Charisma modifier. For example, a character with a Charisma score of 16 could have up to +3 on all their rolls to hit, damage, and saving throw rolls if they completed three successful flourishes, but that would be their limit. These bonuses only apply for one combat, and after the combat has ended, all the bonuses are lost. Special: Flourish may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Greater Mounted Combat Prerequisites: Mounted Combat, 14 ranks in Ride. You are able to guide your mount out of seemingly impossible situations. Benefit: Once per round if your mount fails a save of any sort, you may attempt a Ride check instead, replacing the saving throw roll with your Ride check result. Special: Greater Mounted Combat may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Superior Combat Training Prerequisites: Mounted Combat, 9 ranks in Handle Animal and 9 ranks in Ride. Your considerable experience with battle mounts is evident in how well your mounts weather combat dangers, often surviving where others would not. Benefit: If you are riding a mount that you have succeeded in training for a purpose or taught a trick against a Handle Animal DC of 20 (the combat-related tricks and purposes), it gains benefits while you ride it. For every two hit dice you possess in excess of the animal’s hit dice, it gains one temporary hit dice worth of hit points, as well as the corresponding bonus to attack from gaining those hit dice. All other traits are unaffected. For example, if a 10th level Human Fighter (10 hit dice) was riding a heavy warhorse he had trained (4 hit dice), the heavy warhorse would gain 3 temporary hit dice, giving the animal 27 temporary hit points and increasing its base attack bonus to +5. This feat has no affect on Paladin special mounts or Druid and Ranger animal companions, who already gain significant benefits. It only applies to otherwise normal mounts. Special: Superior Combat Training may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Duelist Prerequisites: Dodge, Weapon Finesse. You are adept at fighting with one hand free, wielding a weapon in one hand and nothing in the other. Benefit: While fighting with a weapon that can be affected by Weapon Finesse in one hand and nothing in the other hand, you gain several benefits. You only gain the benefits of this feat under those conditions – as soon as you are disarmed of your weapon or grasp an object in your other hand or use your off-handed arm (to block with a buckler, for instance) the feat’s bonuses are moot for that combat round. By turning your body sideways against the foe you have selected to Dodge, you are a narrower target. Your Dodge bonus to AC increases by 2. You can use your off-hand to balance yourself, and gain a +2 bonus on all Balance and Tumble checks. Furthermore, you gain an additional attack of opportunity every round due to the relative freedom of response you gain by having a free hand. Special: Duelist may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Greater Critical Prerequisite: Improved Critical with the selected weapon group You have mastered using your weapons of choice to inflict a gruesome degree of damage to enemies on critical hits. Benefit: When you gain Greater Critical, select a weapon group that you have Improved Critical in. Those weapons’ critical multiplier increases by one. You may select Greater Critical more than once. Each time it is selected, it applies to a different weapons group. Special: Greater Critical may be selected as a Fighter bonus feat. Improved Ride-By Attack Prerequisite: Ride-By Attack, Base Attack Bonus +11. Your jousting skills have improved to the point where you can engage two opponents on a single run. Benefit: Your Ride-By Attack feat may select a second opponent past the first to make an attack against. This second opponent is treated identically to the first except that the second attack is made at a -10 penalty. Alternatively, you may direct both attacks against one opponent. Special: Improved Ride-By Attack may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Improved Shot on the Run Prerequisites: Shot on the Run, Base Attack Bonus +11. Your mobile shooting ability has improved to the point where you can shoot twice while moving. Benefit: While using Shot on the Run you may fire a second time at any point in your movement at -10 to hit. Special: Improved Shot on the Run may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Improved Spring Attack Prerequisites: Spring Attack, Base Attack Bonus +11. You can engage two enemies while springing about the battlefield. Benefit: Your Spring Attack feat may select a second opponent past the first to make an attack against. This second opponent is treated identically to the first except that the second attack is made at a -10 penalty. Alternatively, you may direct both attacks against one opponent. Special: Improved Spring Attack may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Improved Whirlwind Attack Prerequisites: Whirlwind Attack, Dexterity 15, Base Attack Bonus +11. You have mastered the Whirlwind Attack technique. Benefit: You may Whirlwind Attack as a move-equivalent action rather than a full-round action. This means you may move and then Whirlwind Attack or Whirlwind Attack twice in one round if you only move up to one five-foot step. Special: Improved Whirlwind Attack may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Juggernaut Prerequisites: Strength 15, Improved Bull Rush, Improved Overrun, Great Cleave, Base Attack Bonus +11. You harness your charge into an unstoppable force, battering foes aside and proceeding to the next. Benefit: You may declare that you are making an unstoppable charge as a full-round action. If you do so, make a charge as normal. If the enemy you contact is dropped due to damage, forced prone by overrun or knocked back by a bull rush, you may continue along your current trajectory, attacking any enemy that gets in your way (whether you attack them, bull rush them, or overrun them is your decision). Your unstoppable charge ends once you run out of charge distance, voluntarily end your charge, hit an obstacle you cannot pass through, or encounter an enemy that you do not drop, bull rush, or overrun out of the way. You may not use any other means of gaining free attacks while making an unstoppable charge (such as from Cleave or an extra standard action due to haste, etc.) – you are too busy smashing aside enemies immediately in front of you. Special: Juggernaut may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Tower Shield Mastery Prerequisite: Tower Shield Proficiency. You have trained enough with the tower shield to compensate for its considerable burden in combat. Benefit: While wielding a tower shield, attacks made with light weapons do not incur the -2 penalty to hit. You may shield bash with your tower shield. It counts as a large bludgeoning weapon (it does not physically require both hands to use, but will preclude any attacks from other weapons that round and gain relevant damage bonuses from a high Strength score and Power Attack) that deals d6 damage. Tower shields cannot make effective use of shield spikes. The armor check penalty of tower shields you wield decreases by 3. Special: Tower Shield Mastery may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. Pavise Combat Prerequisites: Weapon Focus in a crossbow, Tower Shield Proficiency. You have mastered the art of using a pavise in ranged combat, giving you a significant advantage against other ranged foes at the cost of mobility. Benefit: You may plant your tower shield in the ground as a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity (the same is true of dislodging it). Choose one of the sides of your square to plant it in. It now counts as cover for all attacks that target you through it. Due to its height, you may only fire over a pavise with a crossbow, in which case its flat trajectory and method of firing allow it to shoot over the top with little difficulty whereas a bow or thrown weapon would be extremely awkward. If you end your turn by taking a full-round or move-equivalent action to reload your crossbow, you count as being in total cover until your next turn as you crouch behind your pavise to reload. Special: Note that your enemies may hold their actions to shoot at you once you emerge from reloading, however! Pavise Combat may be taken as a Fighter bonus feat. ---------- Haruspex Stunning Weapon You can stun your opponents using your weapons instead of your bare hands. Prerequisites: Dex 13, Wis 13, Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Weapon Focus, base attack bonus +10. Benefits: You may use your Stunning Fist feat with any manufactured weapon which you have Weapon Focus in. Furthermore, your fighter levels count as monk levels for the purpose of determining how many stunning attacks per day you get. Special: A fighter may select Stunning Weapon as a fighter bonus feat. Scything Whirlwind Your skill at arms enables you to attack multiple opponents with two weapons. Prerequisites: Dex 15, Int 13, Two-Weapon Fighting, Whirlwind Attack, base attack bonus +8. Benefits: When you use Whirlwind Attack, you may make one attack against each opponent within reach with each weapon you are holding. Each attack made in this way suffers a -2 penalty. For example, a fighter wielding a longsword and a dagger may make one attack with his longsword and one attack with his dagger against each opponent within his reach, taking a -2 penalty on all such attacks. Special: A fighter may select Scything Whirlwind as a fighter bonus feat.

Ghenesh 05-24-07, 11:34 AM	Well the idea of the thread is to continue receiving more and more Fighter Feats.
Orenmir 05-24-07, 02:20 PM	Are any of these legit? I don't think my DM allows anything not published in an official source.
Screams_of_the_Oak 05-24-07, 06:41 PM	Are any of these legit? I don't think my DM allows anything not published in an official source. Of course they aren't, that's why they are being posted. Alot of these feats are overpowered, and almost none of them have been used in an actual game to check for balance. However, if one of these feats catches your eye, talk it over with your DM. If it's not too powerfull, I don't see why he wouldn't let you sacrifice a whole feat slot for it.

ragoftag 05-31-07, 12:31 AM	It'll be interesting to see if any of these become RAW. That said, I see a few I might allow in some form.
