[QUOTE="Kerrick, post: 3552886, member: 4722"] Yeah, that is a pretty useless ability. I had one called Acrobatics, where it added +2 to Balance, Jump and Tumble (it would have been ovelapped by Improved Acrobatics at L4), but I dropped that because there wasn't any point in having two such abilities. I could move Improved Acrobatics down to L1 and give them that feat from PHB II that grants two attacks when using Spring Attack. I'd like to keep this OGC, though, since it'll be going up on our site when it's finished. Edit: After looking this thing over a bit, I decided to drop that ability. I moved Imp Acrobatics up, and tossed in Spring Attack (the normal one, not the improved version) as a bonus feat, because they'd be able to qualify for it by 4th level anyway. I'm not sure about replacing Elaborate Parry with Combat Expertise - since they stack, a 10th level Duelist fighting defensively could gain 5 (EP) + 5 (CE) + 2 (defensive fighting) = +12 to AC, which is really handy for someone in light armor.
