Most Underwhelming Feats You Can't Help But Love

[martixy]

Inhuman Reach, from Lords of Madness. Despite the feat tax of 1, it allows a permanent, natural reach increase that could be so awesome for so many martial builds-but the prerequisite Aberrant Blood requires Humanoid, which is overwritten by almost any inherited template-and pretty much all of my optimized builds use Half-Minotaur or something else that disqualifies. That means pigeonholing into Half-Ogre and almost nothing else, which feels not quite worth it for the extra reach.

Boy, do I have good news for you! It's a feat called Mourning Mutate, found in Dragon #359, p.109, which is the non-humanoid version of Aberrant Blood.

Me, I like tactical feats, for the major, but ultimately unfulfilled promise of diversity in combat styles.
