Feats

Beta

Overview
Feats are special abilities that give your character a new capability, or improves one he or she already has.

Each Character gets one feat upon creation. At 3rd level, and every 3 levels after that (6th, 9th...) he or she gains another feat. Certain characters can gain additional feats:
 * Half-Elves get an additional race-specific Dilettante feat at 1st level. These feats are similar to taking one multiclass level.
 * Humans get one additional generic feat slot at 1st level.
 * Fighters get a bonus feat at 1st and 2nd level and every even-numbered fighter level thereafter, taken from a list of combat-oriented feats.
 * Monks get an extra feat at Monk level 1, 2, and 6, taken from a list of martial arts feats.
 * Rogues can select an extra feat at Rogue level 10, 13, 16, and 19 from the list of Rogue Special Ability.
 * Wizards get to choose a bonus feat at levels 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20, taken from a list of spellcasting-oriented feats.
 * Artificers get to choose a bonus feat at levels 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20, taken from a list of Artificer bonus feats.

Free Active Feats are provided to any character that meets the requirements, and represent things most people can try (but not necessarily with much success).

Note also that some classes automatically gain free class feats based on their class level: check each class' page for more details on those. Sometimes they allow the player to make a choice of which to take, as with rogue special abilities, ranger favored enemy, and monk philosophical path. Those feats will not be listed on this page, and are described with the appropriate class, even though they are treated as feats for some gameplay purposes (such as swapping them by spending dragonshards).

For alphabetical listing of all feats, see Category:Feats.

Racial feats
The majority of racial feats are given for free at character creation, the exceptions are for Half-Elves and Warforged.

Please see the respective race pages for Drow, Dwarves, Elves, Half-Elves, Halflings, Half-Orc, and Warforged for the list of their respective racial feats.

Dragonmark Feats

 * Drow and Warforged cannot obtain Dragonmark feats.
 * Refer this article for details about all the Dragonmarks.

Metamagic Feats
This Feat List can be found at the Metamagic Feats page.

Past Life Feats
You can only get a Past Life Feat if you undergo True Reincarnation. A list is available on the Past Life Feats page.

Epic Feats
Epic Feats can be taken once a character has reached level 21+ and meets the pre-requisites.
