Dilettante feats
Dilettante feats are special feats available to Half-Elves. They enable a Half-Elf to garner some of the abilities of another class other than the class they have chosen. A Half-Elf can choose any one of these feats he or she meets the listed requirements for at character creation.
When retraining feats by talking to Fred, ability increase tome bonuses are NOT counted for prerequisites, however, ability increases from level-upCharacters can increase an ability by one at levels: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24. ARE counted. (Nov 2012 forum post)
Along with various bonuses, you, with these feats, count as a level one of the class for item use purposes (class restricted items, scrolls and wands). These feats are not recommended for characters with actual levels of the class.
Icon | Feat | Type | Description | Prerequisites |

Half-Elf Dilettante: Alchemist | Passive | You have a knack for experimentation with potions and poisons. You have +10 Universal Spell Power. For item use purposes, you count as a level one Alchemist in addition to any other classes you possess. This feat is not recommended for characters with actual Alchemist levels. |

Half-Elf Dilettante: Artificer | Passive | You have watched the artificers of House Cannith work their trade.

You are able to use wands and scrolls as if you are a level one artificer. For item use purposes you count as a level one artificer in addition to any other classes you possess (though this does not grant the ability to use Rune Arms). |
