Handbook of the Exotic Practice of Feat Binding

...or, the Handbook of Feat-granting Items and Effects

Discussion and Suggestion Thread

Feats. Let's face it, feats are at a premium. Many characters never receive more than 7 feats in their career. Wizards get a few more. Fighters get even more, but they usually are hard pressed to do everything they want to, unless the follow one of the "optimized paths". Flaws might net you another one or two, but depend on a generous DM.

And there are so many feats to choose from. In the consolidated list of feats alone, there are 3279 feats listed. And that is not all of the official feats, either. Kingdoms of Kalamar, Ravenloft, Athas.org's DarkSun, and more, also offer additional lists of official feats beyond the consolidated list.

There are quite a few items that grant feats or feat-like abilities. These can potentially save precious feat slots for other needed feats. Be forewarned that if the item becomes lost, broken, suppressed, or disjoined, the feat will no longer be available to you, nor will anything that requires that feat as a prerequisite, be it a prestige class, or another feat in a chain.

The list will be in four parts:

• Items that grant actual feats
• Items that grant the benefit of a feat
• Items that grant abilities that duplicate a feat
• Spells and powers that fall into one of these three categories which can be made into items

There is some debate about if an ability duplicates a feat-whether it can count as the feat or not, as well as items that 'grant the benefit of a feat' being the same as granting a feat or not. This becomes an important consideration, as in many cases the purpose of taking a feat is to meet the prerequisite for another feat or class. Verify with your DM before proceeding to spend your cold, hard cash.

Note: the items listed here are pre-crafted items listed in an official source.

  [This one is problematic on a couple of levels. Firstly, while in real life a quarterstaff is an excellent tripping weapon, D&D 3.5 no longer recognizes that. (The official 3.5 PH list of tripping weapons is confined to: bolas, spiked chain, flail, dire flail, heavy flail, guisarme, halberd, gnome hooked hammer, kama, scythe, sickle, and whip.) Secondly, when I computed the cost of this item I realized they only priced the MW quarterstaff as a double weapon. The rest of the enhancement (+3 bonus total) is applied only to one end.]

Comments

Most of the deconstruction of item costs to extract the price for feats is straightforward by following the cost tables. By looking at several items I determined (with reasonable confidence, I think) that WotC figures the cost for a single save bonus (such as Reflex) is 1/3 the cost of a resistance bonus to all three saves. (When added to an item with other features, such as a granted feat, remember the 1.5x cost multiplier for an additional property.)

Magic Items that Grant Feats
Pricing feats for magic items is a very fuzzy area. If a feat is purely mechanical... default to the rules in the Dungeon Master's Guide with an adjustment for the fact that the bonus has no type.... Metamagic feats should adjust the level of the spells to which they apply, and thus change the price... consider increasing all the spell levels by +1 if the item affects spells of 0–3rd level, by +2 if the item affects spells of 0–6th level, and by +4 if the item affects spells of any level. A general guideline for other kinds of feats is that they cost 10,000 gp, plus another 5,000 gp to 10,000 gp per prerequisite.
