[QUOTE="Undrave, post: 7827725, member: 7015698"] Because those extra feats come in too late for most campaign. You'll need your first ASI or two to keep up your attack stat because it's important to stay relevant in combat. And then most people have a core thematic combat feat they want to make their build perform like they imagine it to perform.
