Capellan said:Definitely looks that way. For 3.5, I'd suggest something like:
Improved Animal Companion [General]
Prerequisite: Animal companion class ability
Benefit: You gain a bonus to your effective druid level for the purposes of determining your animal companion's abilities. This bonus is equal to +1 for every effective druid level you already possess for the purposes of determining your animal companion's abilities, up to a maximum bonus of +3.
Special: You may take this ability multiple times. Each time you take it, your maximum bonus increases by +3.
+3 effective level per feat (which basically bumps you up one row on the chart) may be too much - you'd have to playtest it to see.
Is this an old thread?
Natural Bond from CAdv is basicly what you've described... being able to take it multiple times would be INSANE.
As is, a Druid 5 / Beastmaster 1 with Natural Bond can manage a nasty 8 HD Animal...
