Not much of a fan of the free Feat at level 1 and banning VHuman "fix" that seems popular. It basically just encourages the VHuman problem for everyone.But it allows builds that take forever to come online and opens up Armor/Weapon options to whoever wants them without having to resort to Multiclass dip. Want a Swashbuckler in Medium Armor? Level 4 gets you Moderately Armored and Medium Armor Master if you want it.The Full Feat/Semi Feat cut is pretty subjective and this is obviously homebrew, YMMV on what you want on each side. Either way it opens up the completely useless Perks to make a flavorful Lvl 1 character at minor convenience cost, combined with some of the weak Racial Feats this frontloads the options to make low level characters more diverse and fun to play.It's still not going to compete with the DPR of an Elven Accuracy, Sharpshooter build. But having the option to pick up 4-5 utility Semi Feats instead of an 18 in a Mainstat + damage Full Feat gives the alternative some ammunition./edit: Pretty much ninjaed by [USER=22103]@GlassJaw[/USER] ;D</blockquote>
