[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 3950294, member: 29014"] Sadly yes, though the Psywar has less to give someone who's only in it to exploit feats and get the most they can out of it on the side (since that kind of character likely won't have enough Wisdom to get useful PP with 1 or 2 Psywar levels, and Psywar has only 2 skill points). The worst is when they do all three. Fighter2/FeatRogue2/Psywar2 has absolutely insane featage (6 bonus feats in 6 levels). They do lose 2 BAB, but the good news for them is that they can proceed to FeatRogue4 without losing any more BAB (and Psywar4 too if they had more Wisdom than expected). They can always take Iron Will as one of the many bonus feats they finessed. Just because you have a tiny amount of Sneak Attack doesn't mean you'd have to use it though. Heck, you could just decide that for your character it was a 'Teamwork bonus' that applies when flanking and just never use it for flatfooted purposes. In that sense, it is little different than Weapon Specialisation, one of the feats you might take as a feat rogue, a damage boost. I will eat a shoe if we allowed the Sneak Attack Fighter. Rae thinks we may have approved the Thug. That's a shame--it's a good idea, but it needs to pay something each level (like a HD drop) instead of just one feat to balance the skill gains at every level to be balanced. [/QUOTE]
