[QUOTE="Warpiglet, post: 7587781, member: 6689161"] How underpowered would upgraded armor and four weapon proficiencies be? I would say that is a lot of mechanical advantage for a feat and where it applies, good flavor. Well this already exisits. As a variant human take an armor feat if needed at first and wepaon master at 4th. You give up a single ASI for weapons and armor. I see nothing wrong with this feat at all. Half feats are just that. You give up one point (single) for extra weapons. Perhaps this only means you are more likely to find magic weapons such as a longsword. That could arguably be more powerful than a single point of ASI. Take an arcana cleric and heavily armored and weapon master. Now you're swinging martial weapons with gfb/B.B. in heavy armor (as just one example) for the price of one ASI (two half feats would give you these options plus equivalent of an ASI with two individual points of ability scores combined). Just had to dissent after seeing this feat disparaged regularly over the years. I just can't go with the pack on this. [/QUOTE]
