The Bonus Feat [PEACH][BASE]

[spikeof2010]

I thought the fighter didn't have enough bonus feats, so I made this

The Bonus Feat is quite the character, mainly because he accumulates so many feats.

True Master of Feats: At 20th level, the Bonus Feat may reselect all his feats after eight hours of rest. He may also ignore all prerequisites for any feat he has.

Is it Tier 1 yet?

[Realms of Chaos]

Needs more feats, dude. I know you can give it more than that.

[Seerow]

40+int mod skill points at first level?

[Realms of Chaos]

40+int mod skill points at first level?

Huh, I didn't even notice that deficiency next to the feat-starved nature of the class. Yeah, you should probably give out more.

[spikeof2010]

I think they need to make a tier 7.

[AuraTwilight]

you should probably give it full BAB and all good saves to maximize the amount of feats it can qualify for.

And maybe a feature along the lines that it can qualify for any feat as if it were a different class of it's equivalent level.

Bonus Feat Mastery (Ex): At each level, a FEATMASTER gains a number of bonus feats equal to the number of feats they already have.

Epic Feat Mastery (Ex): At xth level, a FEATMASTER may take Epic feats as bonus feats.

There. Assuming a Human FEATMASTER without any flaws, they have this many feats at each level:

1. 6
2. 12
3. 26
4. 52
5. 104
6. 210
7. 420
8. 840
9. 1682
10. 3364
...

You get the idea.

It'd be broken, but eh.

Definitely adding these.

[Amechra]

Building the character will be painful.

I'm not sure there's enough feats in the game for this suggestion. On the other hand when you level up to 20 and take Toughness 3,444,736 times, toughness no longer seems like such an awful feat.


I'm also still not entirely sure if the OP is being serious or making a joke with this.

If it's serious, I'd recommend readjusting the skill points to a more normal level, give actual BAB/Save progressions (even if it's low. But I'd go with humanoid levels, so 1 good save, medium BAB), and make it a flat 5 feats per level (effectively what characters in E6 get for their progression).

[Realms of Chaos]

Building the character will be painful.

Nonsense. Get as many feats as you care for and spend the rest on toughness. A level 10 character with 9,000+ hp sounds pretty interesting. Alternately, go for psionic talent and grab 4.5 million power points before multiclassing into a class that can properly use them.

Or, if you want the true route to power, choose skill focus. +3 bonus to every profession you can imagine. Can you handle the power?

Factotum 8/Bonus Feat 12

Take Font of Inspiration 26,900 times.

Have fun calculating how many inspiration points you get. But I think the bottom line is "I kill the whole world in one round".

Edit: Oh wait, Font of Inspiration is capped by intelligence modifier. So past a certain point you have to take Epic Intellect twice for every Font of Inspiration. Say 34 base intelligence, so you get 12+(26888/3) instances of Font of Inspiration. 8974 instances of Font of Inspiration. Still going to have somewhere in the millions of inspiration points.

Inspiration points? What splatbook is this from?

[Amechra]

And the best part is the Intelligence in the low mid 1000s.

Totally balanced!

But naw, I'd just dip Martial and buy a crapton copies of Epic Charisma. +500-ish to the whole party's initiative is good, right?

Or spend the entire day hasted.

Or have excessive amounts of DR/-.

Fast Healing in the hundreds? Doable!

NI followers? Could be!

Seriously, go for the better feats, and win the game! WIN IT, I SAY!

[Seerow]

And the best part is the Intelligence in the low mid 1000s.

No, you're underestimating it. It's not low-mid 1000s. You have an intelligence mod equal to the number of times you took Font of Inspiration. That's an int mod of 8974, or an Intelligence Score of 17,958.

Of course you could always stop around 1000, pick up 1000 or so charisma, tons of DR, HP, fast healing, and all the other stuff mentioned.

And still have enough feats left over to take every feat ever printed (plus blow enough feats to get your stats high enough to qualify for them)




Yeah, getting 10s of thousands of feats is just silly.

[Eldan]

And maybe spend a few dozen feats on getting epic spellcasting via Sanctum Spell/earth spell tricks?

You could probably get it by level 10, if you try.

[spikeof2010]

The problem with this class is due to lack of BAB progression and such, you missed a lot of feats due to prereqs. So I added a new feature

[Tanuki Tales]

Hm....this thread has inspired me.

I'm pretty sure it would only take that long because that's when the epic feats come online.

[Jallorn]

Hmmmm... Needs an Epic Progression. And can I suggest for a capstone:

True Master of Feats: At 20th level, the Bonus Feat may reselect all his feats after eight hours of rest. He may also ignore all prerequisites for any feat he has.


You might want to do something about all the dead levels, though.

Here's another one to toss in there:

Repetition: At Xth level, the Bonus Feat may select any feat multiple times, even if it normally can only be taken once.

Excellent place to start with breaking this: You can now pick up every soulmeld in the game, every chakra binding, enough essence to max them all out, and can take the feat that lets you shape/bind two melds to the same slot as many times as you want to have them all shaped and melded at once.

Still got nothing on epic spellcasting at level 10, but fun and you probably have all of them by around level 6.

What do you mean? I think it still needs some help.
Actually I think this probably outdoes Lighting Warrior.
I mean, it's no Lightning Warrior, but...

[Realms of Chaos]

totally agreed. We should start by filling all of those dead levels ('cause everyone knows that feats aren't "real" class features).

Feat Swap: Starting at X level, you may spend 8 hours in meditation to swap any number of feats you possess for an equal number of feats you meet all prerequisites for.

[spikeof2010]

Christ, I love how much support this class is getting. I hope it gets into Morph Bark's tier list.

Feat Mastery: Starting at level A, any bonus feat you take that is usable a limited number of times per day has that number of times increased by your class level.

Feat Supremacy: Starting at level B, any ability granted by a feat may be used as a free action.

Dear lord, this class is slowly approaching Tier 3

[Amechra]

I'm still kinda curious why they get +5 BAB at 1st level... but have BAB +0 at every other level.

EDIT: Oh, and:

Feat Suppression Field (Ex): At C level, every creature within (5 x the number of feats that the FEATMASTER has)' lose the benefit of any feat that the FEATMASTER has for as long as they remain within range. A will save against a DC 10 + 1/2 level + Charisma allows a creature to ignore the effects of this aura for 24 hours.

fixed it. This is clearly how BAB progression works.

[Amechra]

Oh and I editted in a low-power class feature.

[spikeof2010]

We need something to fill in the dead 15-19 levels
