Vampiric Cleave Prerequisite's: Power Attack, Vampiric Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Str 13, Base Attack Bonus +6 Benefit: Once per round, when making a cleave attack, you heal a # of points of damage equal to half the damage you dealt Vampiric Power Attack Prerequisite: Power Attack, Str 13, Base Attack Bonus +2 Benefit: When you power attack you heal a # of points of damage equal to the penalty you took on your power attack What do you think? Any more ideas for feats that heal you when you use them?
TevolRia 04-29-07, 06:39 PM	I like them, but how do you justify that happening? The healing I mean. The sounds like it would be a vampire or half-vampire feat. A think that it would be fun to have a prestige class attached to the feats.

tarkin 04-30-07, 11:29 AM	This is what I might allow: Vampiric Cleave Prerequisite's: Power Attack, Vampiric Power Attack, Cleave, Str 13, a natural weapon, an SU, EX, SA, or ability to cast a spell that is necromantic in nature. Benefit: Once per DAY, when making a cleave attack with a natural weapon, you heal a # of points of damage equal to half the damage you dealt. (It is too easy to get a bunch of squirrells and start killing them to heal). Vampiric Power Attack Prerequisite: Power Attack, Str 13, natural weapon, an SU, EX, SA, or ability to cast a spell that is necromantic in nature. Benefit: When you power attack you may instead choose to heal the # of points of damage equal to the penalty you took, instead of doing additional damage. Things that increase the amount of damage you do on a power attack do not increase the damage you heal using this feat. Some better pre-reqs, and an adjustment to power. If you want to make a 3rd feat that lets you keep both the Power Attack damage increase and also heal, that would be fine.
Runepriest 05-03-07, 11:00 PM	O.K.: new addition to feats: once per day, and minimum character level of 5th for the Power attack and 12th for cleave
NeoDX90 05-04-07, 01:55 AM	These feats could go very nicely with the Necrotic Focus weapon ability from MIC. I like the feats with the exception of imposing a minimum character level. A minimum BAB is enough. Both prereqs aren't necessary. I'm building a vampire to use in my monthly as a midboss type encounter, and would love to try these out, heh.
Runepriest 05-04-07, 07:28 PM	O.K. another revision. Also, more ideas for feats? Vampiric Cleave Prerequisite's: Power Attack, Vampiric Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Str 13, Base Attack Bonus +6 Benefit: When making a cleave attack, you heal a # of points of damage equal to the number of cleaves you did in one chain. You may use this ability equal to 3+Con mod times per day. Vampiric Power Attack Prerequisite: Power Attack, Str 13, Base Attack Bonus +2 Benefit: When you power attack you may subsititute for the extra damage to heal a # of points of damage equal to the penalty you took on your power attack. The number of hitpoints healed may not exceed the # of hitpoints the target has Example: Fighter A attacks Creature A. Creature A has 150 hit points. Fighter A is lvl 10. Fighter A power-attacks for 5 points. He uses Vampiric Power Attack and is healed of 5 points of damage. Fighter A attacks Creatures B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I. They each have 10 hitpoints. Fighter A kills them all with Cleave and uses Vampiric Cleave with his Cleave and heals 8 hitpoints.
