Feat to grant feats?

[Corlon]

Would it be too powerful to give a feat that granted all summoned undead or summoned creatures that met the prerequisites a feat?

 

[Kirin'Tor]

That would really depend on the PreReq's on the feat...

If it required, say, Augment Summoning & Spell Focus: Conjuration, along with some spell-craft & caster level stuff.

Only certain feats, though...things like Power Attack, Combat Expertise & Reflexes, Maybe Ability Focus...

What feat did you have in mind to grant?

 

[Corlon]

well, I was thinking power attack and such, but the feat that caused me to come up with it was "ghostly grasp" from Libris Mortis.

Prereqs: cha 15, incorporeal
Benefit: you can wear,wield, and use material stuff as if you were material.

I thought this would be cool for a master of shrouds to "animate" sets of armor by summoning incorporeal creatures with this feat to inhabit them.

 

[the Jester]

That's a damn cool idea. With the right prereqs... or maybe within certain limitations... I'd allow it.

Considering that Augment Summoning gives summoned creatures +4 STR and +4 CON (much better than any feat), having a feat to have summoned creatures have certain feats doesn't sound overpowered at all, assuming it's one of the creature's normal feat slots, rather than an extra one. Maybe even more than 1 feat could be granted this way via the one feat.

Make it a specific feat -- or even more than one specific feat, for, say Power Attack/Cleave -- have Augment Summoning as a prereq, and I don't really see a problem. It makes your summoned monsters significantly more powerful, but since it only works once you've summoned them, that limits its true power. I think it's fine, especially since you (the caster) are out a feat that could be buffing you up.
