Epic Feats[edit]

How they have changed[edit]

Well now that we have seen what newer feats can do epic feats don't seem like that big of a deal now do they? Well this section aims to correct that as well. Unlike normal feats almost all of these feats have a prerequisite and advance based on class level (mainly due to the fact that depending on build certain feats might be unobtainable.) In short this entire section should bring Epic Feats back into the realm of something you might actually want to take, instead of seriously considering taking another base feat since it gives you a ton of enhancements for a single feat.

Prerequisite: Light Armor Specialization.

  • Character Level 21 = The characters maximum dexterity bonus increases by 2 for all light armors.
