Message: <blockquote data-quote="KarinsDad" data-source="post: 5225240" data-attributes="member: 2011">Yours is an entitlement argument.Let's take a simple example. Heavy Blade Mastery.With your argument, every melee PC should be able to take Heavy Blade Mastery or Axe Mastery or Flail Mastery. Every single melee PC should be allowed to get 19 or 20 criticals with their weapon. Every one.Hence, the design of these Mastery feats is flawed. I should be able to do so with my 10 Dex Fighter.I am ENTITLED to have the same 19 to crit that other PCs have. Entitled.That's really what the "requirements should be weak" POV really boils down to. I am ENTITLED as a player to have all of the best feats I want. The game designers should not have restrictions on the acquisition of the best feats.Even the retraining argument doesn't hold up too well. If there were a 3 feat chain situation that the player doesn't like, he can retrain feat #3, retrain feat #2, and then retrain feat #1 over 3 levels (if he wanted to go back that far). He can still pretty much get out of such a situation.A PC doesn't have to be designed to the nth degree ahead of time. It only has to do so if the player wants to powergame his PC with the absolute best feats. The stronger prerequisites were there to reward certain types of builds with certain types of stronger feats. Now, everyone is entitled to those stronger feats. The most restrictive feat limit now is race for the most part. Even class isn't completely restrictive. A single multi-class feat will allow for at least one different class feat.</blockquote>
