Hello everyone,

Just as the topic says, I'd like someone to either point me to where I can find some already existing epic Combat Form feats (from Player's Handbook 2) or try and make them himself (I'm requesting this, because my homebrewing skills are still not adequate for this task).

I'm counting on you guys !! :smallcool:

Themselves. There are plenty of girls on the site, many of whom are quite good at homebrewing. :smallcool:

Krimm_Blackleaf might be interested in this. Perhaps you could PM him about it.

Sincere apologies to all female gamers for this faux pas :smallredface:

Naaah, Krimm already has several requests from me hanging in his messagebox, don't want to seem rude or pesky or something :smallsmile:

Yeah...can't seem to find my PHB2, which is holding me up. Mind PMing me the run-down of the feats?

Are these the sort of thing you're looking for?


Perfection of Martial Offense [Epic, Combat Form, Fighter]
Prerequisites: Base Attack Bonus +21, Wisdom 17, Combat Focus, Combat Strike, any 1 other Combat Form feat.
Benefit: While you maintain your Combat Focus, treat all melee attacks you make as melee touch attacks. If you end your Combat Focus to use the benefits of your Combat Strike feat, you gain a bonus to attack and damage rolls equal to your character level instead of the number of Combat Form feats you possess.

Relentless Vigor [Epic, Combat Form, Fighter]
Prerequisites: Base Attack Bonus +21, Constitution 17, Wisdom 15, Combat Focus, Combat Vigor, any 2 other Combat Form feat.
Benefit: While you maintain your Combat Focus, you gain 10 temporary hit points at the beginning of each round. Increase the number of temporary hit points you gain by 5 for each Combat Form feat you possess. Additionally, you cannot die as long as you maintain your Combat Focus: if you would die for any reason, you remain both conscious and living until the end of your Combat Focus.

Unbreakable Guard [Epic, Combat Form, Fighter]
Prerequisites: Base Attack Bonus +21, Dexterity 15, Wisdom 17, Combat Focus, Combat Defense, any 1 other Combat Form feat.
Benefit: While you maintain your Combat Focus, you gain Improved Evasion, and gain Damage Reduction 4/- against the target of your Dodge feat. Increase the Damage Reduction by +4/- for each Combat Form feat you possess.

Unyielding Focus [Epic, Combat Form, Fighter]
Prerequisites: Base Attack Bonus +24, Constitution 21, Wisdom 17, Iron Will, Combat Focus, Combat Vigor, Relentless Vigor, any 1 other Combat Form feat.
Benefit: While you maintain your Combat Focus, you may choose to delay any effects (aside from damage) from any and all attacks against you (including attacks, spells, spell-like ability, supernatural abilities, extraordinary abilities, diseases, poisons, and similar hazards). These effects begin the instant you drop your Combat Focus, as if that moment were the first round of their effect.
Special: Each effect delayed in this manner reduces the duration of your Combat Focus by 2 rounds.

Depends. What direction would you like me to focus on?

Man. I wanted to remake Combat Focus and it's follow-up feats into a longer tree for my feat project, and here you are with not only better ideas than I had, but also much more impressive execution.

Kudos, Djinn.

Impossibility does not apply to you, it seems :smallcool:

Ok, basically you've covered most things I can think of...hmm, maybe something to increase the damage output while maintaining Combat Focus - maybe with a more basic version that doesen't have to an epic feat though (something that can be used as a prerequisite feat along with Combat Strike for an "upgraded" epic feat version).

I was thinking about a PrC based on Combat Focus feats, that allows "some other options" - not exactly sure about those, I was thinking of a "perfectly attuned to the battlefield" state, that works similar to Barbarian's rage, but allows different options for lawful and chaotic characters (defensive vs offensive capabilities sounds like something along this road).

Do you have free time/enough interest in this to try making this PrC for me ?
