Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zarthon" data-source="post: 894998" data-attributes="member: 2007">As far as I can tell the feat is the same as the Improved Familiar feat from Tome and Blood (with the exception of the prerequisite of sufficiently high level.What bothers me about it is the Granted Abilities section. it says "Granted Abilities: In addition to their own special qualities, all familiars grant their masters the Alertness feat, the benefit of an empathic link, and the ability to share spells with the familiar. So that would mean that if a wizard has a Pseudodragon Familiar as his familiar he would recieve blindsense 60 ft, dragon type,  telepathy as well as the normally granted abilities of a familiar.The main D&D FAQ says the following about this in the Familiars section: You’ve been misled by an error in the granted abilities text that appears on pages 13 and 14, which should read as  follows: Granted Abilities: All familiars grant their master the benefits of the Alertness feat (when the familiar is within 5 feet), empathic link, and shared spells at 1st level in addition toany special abilities listed above. That is refering to the Improved Familiar feat from Tome and Blood.Now I realize that the 3.5 version of this feat is not finalized until the book is released but I feel that this should have been corrected.If familiars granted thier masters other abilities such as the Pseudodragon above or the elementals which would grant their masters the Elemental Ability: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning; not subject to critical hits or flanking the Improved Familiar feat would be the number one feat that every wizard would take.Other then that I quite like like the feat.EDIT: Spelling</blockquote>
